4.0

Not sure how this book ever came to fall under the label of chick lit. Anyone looking for a Shopaholic in these here parts will be disappointed. Maybe Bank could have avoided this miscategorization by having her heroine lose her ovaries in the war--I guess a breast to cancer wasn't enough. Which is not to say TGG doesn't percolate with humor and fresh, easy-to-read prose. The first story, featuring 14 year old Jane remains my favorite, but I zipped happily through the rest.
