I really enjoyed this book! Elizabeth is someone to look up to, mostly. She speaks her mind, she goes for what she wants. But she is also unwilling to compromise or change her mind about things. Everything worked out for her but she really didn't seem to change or grow as a result of her experience.

This was a wild ride for me. I finished the book soo quickly and couldn't get myself to put it down. Its such an emotional story: funny, sad and anger-inducing at the same time. You really find yourself rooting for the main character and her loved ones.
