Mixed feelings here. A friend lent it to me, with the disclaimer that it's one of her favorite books ever and knowing that this author also wrote First Wives Club, I was excited to read this.It wasn't horrible, but it could have been a lot better. Here are my issues:1. It could have been short...

In passing, and along with just about every other novelist out there. But still. John. Alright. I've finished. And I'm not entirely s...

I laughed so many times as I read this book. It was hysterical and Ms. Goldsmith had the ability to create dialogue that was so...
