In terms of my actual enjoyment of the book, my rating could probably be lower. Every thing that happens in the plot was gratingly convenient. The characters are more caricatures than characters with depth. Huge things would happen

like the main character more or less trying to die or a woman walking away from her abusive husband

and the plot would continue like, "Ahh, we're glad that's over."

However, I read this with friends and lots of them loved this. If you go in with the mindset that everything wraps up happily in the fairytale of a world where every problem can be solved with a plan and a book, you might like it too.
