Ellie Andrews is finally getting married. Or she will be if she drinks enough champagne to pluck up the courage for her trip down the aisle. The problem is that after months spent bickering over menus and table placements, Ellie's never felt more distant from the man she's supposed to be spending the rest of her life with.

As last minute nerves take hold, a night of soul-searching sees Ellie reflecting back on old flames in a bid to reassure herself she's making the right decision. There's Rupert - adoring but dull; Jay - the teenage crush; Marcus - sexy but toxic; and Xander - a true friend.

But as the sun rises and the ceremony looms ever closer, Ellie is still unsure if she's doing the right thing. Then an unexpected encounter turns her world upside down. Should she take a chance? Or should she stick with the choices she's made? As Ellie makes her way to the church, only one question remains: who will be waiting for her at the altar?

4.0 out of 5 stars No need for second thoughts over this! 10 May 2011
By Leah Graham TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
Ellie Andrews Has Second Thoughts is a fairly simple novel as Ellie wakes up on her wedding morning feeling very nervous about the day ahead. We then go back in time to learn the stories of the four men involved in Ellie's life: Marcus, Rupert, Xander and Jay and how she met them, dated them, and how it all ended (if it did). We then regularly come back to Ellie on her wedding day before diving into more of the past and that's how it continues until the end of the book. Like I said, a very simple concept, but with all the misunderstandings, all the stupid things that occur, the book is very much a page-turner. If Ellie wasn't making a fool of herself by getting wenched up into a tree during an eco-protest despite being terrified of heights, she's tipping curry all over her sister.

I absolutely loved Ellie. Seriously loved her, and that's what Ruth Saberton does best, she gives us a heroine to root for. First Katy Carter, now Ellie Andrews, her ability to tap into the mind of a 20-something is brilliant and I always want to be friends with her characters. I did worry Ellie would spend the time moping over the men in her life in some sort of "Oh gosh, which one should I choose" Bridget Jones kind of way, but it's not like that at all thankfully. Her best friends Sam and Poppy are brilliant, I loved Sam's eco-warrior ways and Poppy was just downright hilarious. As for the men in Ellie's life, I didn't like Marcus or Rupert, I liked Xander just fine but I loved Jay. I wanted Ellie to end up with Jay right from the start, but of all the men Ellie might end up with, her relationship with Jay faces the most obstacles. One thing's for sure, I didn't know who Ellie was going to end up with.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ellie Andrews Has Second Thoughts 7 Jun 2011
By Amy
Format:Paperback
I read Ruth Saberton's previous novel 'Katy Carter Wants A Hero' at the beginning of the year and really enjoyed it, so I was very much looking forward to getting stuck into this one.

Ellie Andrews is the main character in this book. She is fun, and is a character that comes to life on the pages, while being the type of person you wish you had in your life. We are also introduced the Ellie's family, including her sisters and her parents, as well as her friends, and the various men in her life.

What I liked about this book is that it is told in a way I don't think I have ever come across before. Parts of the story are told in sections of time on the day of Ellie's wedding, however, we don't know who it is that she is getting married to, therefore we are left guessing right to last page who it is. In between the wedding day sections, several years and a number of events are explained to us, and this is how we are introduced to the four men that Ellie could potentially be about to walk down the aisle and marry. The four men are all very different and I was personally only able to rule one of them out of the running (I won't spoil the book by telling you who), therefore I was left to guess which one of the other three men it was going to be.

Overall, this is a fun book, which, like Ruth's previous book, also features a heavier and more serious issue amongst all the rest of the chaos and drama surrounding Ellie's life. I'd say that if you're a fan of chick-lit then this is defintely the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book to lose yourself in. 30 May 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
Ellie Andrews is a girl that you can relate to. She's not perfectly beautiful like her blonde sisters, the 'Amazing Andrews' as they are called. She probably eats too much chocolate and ice cream for a girl who would like to be thinner (as we all do!) and enjoys wine in vast quantities. What is great about Ellie is that you grow to love her as she is and discover that her sisters, despite their beauty are in fact selfish and unlikeable.

I devoured this book in 48 hours as it hooks you in from the first page. Ellie is getting married and is getting cold feet. The story alternates between the morning of her wedding and flashbacks to a time where she has four different men in her life, all very different, offering different relationships. The reader is left guessing up until the very last page who it is she in fact she is preparing to marry. The question is, does she or doesn't she go through with it?

I would recommend this book because it is funny in both a girlie and witty way but better still, the characters are very loveable and fun to spend some time with for a couple of days!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing - about to give up on it 28 Oct 2011
By ethal
Format:Paperback
There are some very witty lines in this book. However, the story line is one whereby the main character meets a series of 'out of her league' men who all fall head over heals for her. Whilst I know this book is a work of fiction, it happens happens over and over again which has become boring. I have yet to finish the book and I am debating whether to bother.

5.0 out of 5 stars I never read fiction 27 Jun 2012
By Jedwab
Format:Paperback
(Writing on behalf of my mother)
I was given this book by a friend and although I never usually read fiction or girly stuff by page 10 I was laughing. I really recommend this book as it takes you back to when you are young and courting, except without the pain!
It is well written, very light hearted and fun; just what I needed, well done Ruth, keeping writing these books!
-Jane
