"'If you're new to the genius of Ms Green, we can exclusively reveal that she is amazing. With a capital A' Heat"
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Product Description
Ellie and Dan are living proof that opposites attract.
He always follows instructions and she throws the manual away.
He loves sports whereas Ellie's allergic to any form of exercise.
Ellie doesn't have a mother. And Dan does - a mother who wants to take over ... EVERYTHING.
At first Ellie is thrilled to have Linda as her 'adopted'mother but when she and Dan decide to get married and wedding plans progress, she starts to wonder: is it normal for Linda and Dan to speak on the phone twice a day? How on earth do they come to be having a reception with Chilean bloody seabass and humongous bloody white ribbons tied everywhere when all she wanted was a quiet registry office?
In fact, is she marrying Dan ... OR HIS MOTHER?

The Other Woman is a fantastic character driven novel. All of the main and supporting characters are convincing - Ellie Black is a superb focus character. There have been a lot of strong female leads in novels this year ( Jo Jo Harvey; Marian Keyes - The Other Side Of The Story: Emma Corrigan; Sophie Kinsella - Irrespressible Spirit: Elsie Roundbottom; Steve Horsfall - You Are Here). Add Ellie to the growing list - long may it continue

After I have heard so much praise about Jane Green i was seriously disapointed with this book! It just lacked excitment! The characters had no personality & i got to the point where i didnt care what happened to them! By the last few chapters i just ended up skimming through to get the general (predictable) idea of the ending. I always swap book with my sister but really couldnt put her through the pain of this one!

Ah what a lovely story; it is predicable to some extent, but the way Green draws you in and makes you care about the lead characters is quite amazing. There were points throughout the book that made me giggle, some that sent a shiver down my spine and some that brought a tear to my eye. It is an easy read, but a worthwhile one. This is the second of her books i've read and i've just started the third, a nice way to unwind at the end of the day.

Having read a slow and depressing book about the war I was looking forward to reading this book as it promised to be a good romcom with exceptional ratings. Read more

Did the author write this on her lunch break?
This is chick lit at its laziest and really below the usual standard from Jane Green. The idea was ok but the plot was weak, the dialogue really poor, and as the main character,... Read more

Light and easy to read...
This is my first introduction to Jane Green, and it was as I expected. A lightweight, easy Chick-Lit, and not intellectually demanding - good to read in the bath or in bed. Read more
