Summary: Fish is the Most Likeable Character
Comment: The Good: I liked the unique style Sarah Mlynowski used to tell the story of three young roommates. The chapters of the novel alternate between each woman's perspective and that is quite a refreshing style of story telling. Another plus is Mlynowski's great writing. She's very funny and despite the vast differences between the three characters' personalities, that great sense of humor shows through brilliantly.

The Bad: The way these three people relate to each other is just too unbelievable! Usually, when three women who are THAT different from one another live together, they just keep to themselves and do their own thing. I couldn't believe for a minute that they would ever go out together, plan something together or even speak to one another!

The Ugly: Not one of these three women was likable. They were all quite irritating, actually. Although I enjoyed the book as a quick and somewhat fun read, I couldn't find one appealing quality out of any of the three main characters.

This is an okay novel. I enjoy reading this author's books so much---Milkrun was hilarious-that warrants a 3-star review nearly on it's own.

Summary: A very fun read
Comment: I loved reading from 3 different aspects - Allie, Emma and Jodine. Some of their unspoken thoughts were so funny / sarcastic, etc... This book made me laugh out loud numerous times! It's a fun, light read - highly recommend.

Summary: One More Thing
Comment: I already reviewed this book, but I forgot to mention one other thing that made it implausible. There is no way Jodine - a CANADIAN law student studying CANADIAN law would get a job at an AMERICAN law firm - she wouldn't be admitted to practice in America. Heck - if you're a lawyer admitted to the New York bar and move to another state, if you've been practicing less than seven years, you will most likely have to take that state's bar! Mylenowski needs to do her homework.
