Personally I really loved this book. I love all of Sophie Kinsella's stories. I thought the storyline was pretty unique and I fell to really love a few of the main characters. As much as I wanted the ending to come I didn't want the book to be finished!

Sophie Kinsella's style is amazing. It's crisp, funny, and sharp - like Lexi. She has a way of describing things so that they jump off the page and are so vivid that they almost become real. There's humor, sure - she's a comedy writer, after all. But there's also emotion and depth, as her characters feel deeply about things, as Lexi struggles to find herself. It's a real story, not just a fun ride.
It's a really great way to ponder choices and paths in life - what would my now-self say to my three-years-from-now-self about my choices? For that matter, what would my three-years-ago-self say to my now-self? The drastic change from nice-girl Lexi to the Cobra, and the way she wakes up into the life of the Cobra with the attitudes of nice-girl, showcase what a person could do to himself without realizing it. Sophie Kinsella presents this with a real understanding of what could happen. She seamlessly fits the old Lexi into a high-powered, unfamiliar life, and I love the way everyone's reactions are spot-on to the way they would have known her, whether they are from her old or new life.

So funny. Lexi is the typical Kinsella character. She's funny, smart and not exactly happy with her life.
I really really loved the romance in this book and the story Jon and Lexi shared. Those sunflowers. But that's kind of where my enjoyment of this book ends.
It was not as witty and as hilarious as the other Sophie Kinsella's books and the ending was not completely satisfying. Meh.

I don't know how Sophie only writes about these spasmodic girls, but here is another one.
Lexi is out with the girls in 2004, and falls when trying to catch a taxi. She wakes up in a hospital in 2007, realizing she does not remember the last three years. She's changed into a power-driven low-carb eating person. She barely recognizes this new her in the mirror, and she has a beautiful husband, where together they have a great loft style living. She tries to fit back into this mold of herself she doesn't recognize and doesn't understand what could have happened to make her this way.
This books has some really great moments, especially showing how dim men can be, because they really are. I enjoyed it.

good read.. although the ending did not satisfy me that much..
A bit choppy with cookie-cutter characters of dubious likeability. Fluffy writing, easy reading, happy ending (not a spoiler, you can figure that out from the front cover). I can’t come down distinctly on liking it or not liking it. It won’t be a memorable one.
