actually I never would have read it if not for the blurb that said it was a mystery/crime fiction story. but I did. and it wasn't bad, at all.
it was fun, light, interesting story and had quite thrilling ending. love the mystery and the solving solution part. sure, heather was a big drama queen, but then again, who wouldn't be one if they had a life like her. it was part of the story, and I enjoyed it. had some laugh reading her crazzzyy-rambling minds. and like cooper said in the end, she was so brave to start over again. good for her. of course that being said, I also loath jordan to the max. wish him a very very very 'pleasant' life with tania, they both deserved each other!!!
by the way... I'm size 12.

Who doesn't love a good roman a clef for pre-mental breakdown Britney? Not me, that's for sure...
What a cute book. Not at all what I expected truthfully. For some reason I thought it was going to be this deep book about weight and all that, but indeed it is a mystery where you try to figure out who done it (ftr, I would like to state, I did in fact, figure it out and I am quite pleased that I did!).
The writing was fun to read. I can completely picture someone speaking that way, behaving that way, etc, and it is much like how I would, you know, talk. (and yes the "you know" did pop up in the book and is in fact something I do say!).
Great book. I will definitely be reading the next book in the series as well

Okay, so I was like, Finally I have found an author that doesn't use the F-word or include pointless incredibly descriptive sex scenes in their books and is still cute and funny. But that was before I got close to the end. Still no incredibly descriptive sex scenes, but a couple F-words, unfortunately. And toward the end it gets pretty corny and cheesy, but then the actual end is pretty good. It doesn't have a completely fulfilling conclusion because it is the first in a series. I like the book, but mostly likely I won't read the sequels unless I have truly nothing else to read, and if you look at my to-read list, that will be a long time from now!
I kept trying to force myself to finish this. I usually love Meg Cabot but everything about this book rubbed me the wrong way. I thought Heather was just annoying and scatterbrained and yet it irritated me how quickly and thoroughly all the secondary characters seemed to dismiss her. Just not for me.
I enjoyed this book very much, but i have to say that if we went over the "dorm....I mean, residence hall" terminology thing again, I would have thrown my iPad against the wall.
Meh. I went into this expecting to like it, but I wasn't wowed. It wasn't really bad, but it didn't really hold my attention, and kind of irritated me at times. The whole "dorm-I mean, residence hall" thing got old really, really fast, and I almost DNF'd this just because of that. Then there was the romance aspect, which is a great example of why I had written off romance in general until I found things I do like, recently. I'm just not a fan of the pining and mental rambling about how perfect a guy is, and the constant planning for their future and all that. Especially when it's a woman thinking about how she can change her own life to catch the attention of the guy she's into. It creeps me out, or at least rubs me the wrong way and has me rolling my eyes. The cheating thing also really bugged me, and the kind of creepy infatuation/obsession (sorry, I mean love) with Cooper had me cringing really hard.
I will almost certainly not be picking up the next book. Even if my library did have more from the series, I just don't care enough about the characters. I knew who the killer was for sure, and their motivation and how they'd done it (guessing how they did it actually surprised me, but it was the only thing I could think of that made senseusing a stun gun or taser was the only thing I could think of that wouldn't really leave much of a trace, like drugs would have ), at least from the second death. I'd suspected from the beginning, but after the second one I was sure. I kept hoping it was actually going to be a different character the grad student who kept psychoanalyzing Heather...I'm already forgetting her name...or even the guy Heather suspected , but it wasn't.
For me, I think the best part of the entire book was right at the end whenMrs. College President, who spent the entire book drunk (when she was mentioned), cracked the killer over the head with a bottle and was all, "I'm a size 12!" . Well, that and the beginning when Heather and the teeny girl at the store kind of teamed up to rage about vanity sizing.
Despite what I didn't like about it, it was kind of entertaining, I guess. I can see myself forgetting about it pretty fast, but I didn't dislike it enough to regret reading it. I think I was just expecting more from it.

Sometimes, your brain turns to mush and you just need something fun to read. For those times, there's Heather Wells.
