Not my usual type of read but a very enjoyable, lighthearted and funny to read for a change. This would make a good beach read. Whilst the ending is very predictable, the author includes lots of details throughout the story which make the story really relatable.
I am so happy that I finally got around to reading this. It was such a fun book and it got me out of a reading slump I've been in for a few weeks. I love watching Rachel's transformation from sad, & settled to happy, content, and unsettled. It may seem like unsettled is a bad adjective, but it's not.
I loved the Niagara Falls parts, because I have a huge love for Niagara Falls. Perhaps it is a cheesy tourist town, but it holds a lot of my favourite memories, especially the memory of my husband proposing to me overlooking the illuminated falls. The feelings Rachel was having while looking at the falls are the same feelings I had when I first saw them & this brought them all back.
I loved all the characters (minus Simon), and loved the real friendship between Rachel, Emelie, and Matthew. The book was funny (I laughed out loud a few times), the items on the list were fun, and I just had a lot of fun reading this.

I`ve read other Lindsey Kelk books which I`ve enjoyed but this was not great. I found the main character extremely unlikable. She just didn't seem like a good person. Also, the plot in the second half became super predictable and boring. I would not recommend it to anyone. If you are thinking about picking it up, I`d say don't waste your time and find yourself a better romance, there`s plenty of choice and any of Kelk's other books are probably better. One last thing, this book was written in 2011 and it did not age well!
This is probably my favourite Lindsey Kelk book to date. I thought the characters were the best developed so far, I really liked each of the main individuals and their relationships. The blurb makes it sound as though the book is all about Rachel sleeping around to get over her ex but this isn't the case. A few of the subplots were a little redundant but I liked how that was how the characters developed. I really enjoyed this.
I really liked this book. It was fun and suspenseful. I just wish it didn't end when it did.
It would be lovely if chick lit would stop romanticising lusting after serial cheaters. K thanks. This book could very easily have been about a woman finding autonomy and empowerment after the breakdown of her relationship. Also, she's not even single for that long.
This was a great book to start my 2016 reading off with. It was light, fun and easy to read.
Rachel's addiction to making lists was just so funny, and how she transformed as a character. I did enjoy the relationship between her and dan.
I rated it 3/4 because it did take me so long to read it, just because I was busy. Also that at times I felt it dragged a little bit, and especially that I just wanted Rachel to go to Dan!
Overall is was a good contemporary read, and I will defiantly be reading more books by this author.
