A standard chick-lit, exactly what you want and expect from Jane Green (but no Jemima J!) Perfect beach read.

I liked it! A different style of writing, but a good read.

Ehh overall. Not sure how it got on my "to read" list but I could have skipped it.

After reading a few "serious" books, I decided to read this because I unapologetically love chick lit. Unfortunately, this book was a waste of my time. Nothing good to say. I felt relief when I finished Did anyone actually like this?

I have wanted to read this book for like ever and I was so happy that I finally got it! However, I just wish that I ended up liking it a lot more. Now don't get me wrong - I liked it but the MC just rubbed me the wrong way for most of the book. Okay, the entire book.

Libby is pretty much a self-centered bitch. However, she is a well-rounded self-centered bitch because she's also shallow and hypocritical as fuck. I just wish she wasn't who she was the entire book and then maybe I would've liked her - but.. uh.. yeah.. I totally didn't.

Then there's Nick, who is the love of Libby's black heart. Yeah, I didn't like him either. Heck I wouldn't have cared one bit if he just magically died from something, like the plague. Honestly, if the book didn't have Libby or Nick and had some more likable and relatable characters then Mr. Maybe would've gotten a lot more stars and a way better review.

I feel like I need a happy book or happy juice to make my day shine a little bit brighter.

I have mixed feelings about this book. While I enjoyed it for the most part, I also feel like it dragged on and on. Some of the characters were annoying as well.

Unremarkable book. Not a bad book but really not anything that stands out. Girl is ready for love and marriage. Girl ends up having two guys on the line - one she loves the idea of and the other she just loves to be with. Blah blah blah.
