This is the devil wears prada, told again. Try a new storyline, Ms. Weisberger

A funny book again by Lauren Weisberger with characters to love and hate. The unexpected suspense towards the end made it even more gripping. I loved every page of it!

This might very well be the worst book I’ve read in the last five years. The only reason I gave it the half star is because I there were no grammatical or spelling errors. It’s something…
The main character is just an empty shell shaped vaguely like a twenty-something woman. She does nothing but complain and hold men to a ridiculous standard set by the heroes in her favourite romance novels.
The endless hate for fat (both food and people) in this book is very much a testament to when it was written, but that doesn’t make it any less vile.
I could probably fill a book of my own with complaints about this one, but I’ll stop here. For my own sanity.
Read this if you’re a masochist.

I enjoyed this book. Maybe a little long, but I would recommend it to a friend.

FUn mind candy - NOT as good a "The Devil Wears Prada." There's some sloppy editing. And what happens to Michael? But it is entertaining, in an empty calorie kind of way .

This is one of my favorite books. It's smart, witty, and fun. It's not unexpected, you know what you're going to get from this book, but the characters are endearing and memorable. Any time I don't know what to read, I come back to this book and read it again.

WOW.
I had heard that The Devil Wears Prada was the only decent book Lauren Weisberger ever wrote (and even that's questionable, though I love it). But I was NOT PREPARED for what a pile of shit this book was going to be.
I read it for one reason, and one reason only. And that's because Eliza Dushku narrates it. Not even my darling girl could improve this awfulness.
Seriously, there were no redeeming factors. It's not even worth recapping any of it, nor pin pointing specific problems. It's. all. bad.
