NOT what I'd call "Chick Lit"
I read this book, because it was in my "funny chick lit" list. There are reviews in Amazon and on the cover by other "funny chick lit" writers, Marian Keyes and Jane Green, who's books are funny & romantic. This wasn't. The main character is a shallow, cold, controlling, unpleasant (rich, but that's cool) figure. She schemes to divorce a nice guy she's been married to for 11 years to get engaged to a creep she dated in college. She matures at the end. Goodness! Who would read this book? It's not a self-help for shallow, cold, controlling, unpleasant women who wouldn't waste their time on this type of book anyway, and wouldn't see themselves in it even if they did read the book. It doesn't add anything delightful, entertaining or even enlightening. Not worth its "chick lit" tag.
