4.0 out of 5 stars Like three books for the price of one, 30 Mar 2004
This was a great book. Marian Keyes has done her job really well. I became really involved in each of the three main characters (Gemma, Jojo and Lily's) stories, and was slightly annoyed (and prepared to dislike the other characters) when the novel switched to tell another womans perspective, yet soon became just as involved in their stories.

It is important to remember that this is a more grown up book that deals with the grown up problems of settling down, and growing up.

All in all a fun, intriguing read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The other side of the story, 28 May 2004
By shelly (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
This is a fantastic book which I cannot recommend highly enough. Marian Keyes proves that she is still the queen of chick lit, in fact I'd say it's her best book yet.
The book centres around the interconnected stories of three women; Jo-Jo, Lily and Gemma- all of them highly engagening and likeable individuals. As always Keyes has created such warm, likeable and above all real characters that you will be drawn in to the story within a few pages. A real un-put-downable treat with far less calories that a magnum!

5.0 out of 5 stars best read in a long time, 2 Jun 2004
Wow! What a fun, provokative, fabulously written book that i just couldn't put down - I just finished it tonight and i'm really quite sad at the thought of losing Gemma (hysterical!) and Johnny, Owen, Mam and Dad, Lilly, Anton and Jo-Jo - what a cast! I'm inspired to buy this book and send it to a few of my girly-friends around the world - the word must be spread! I would give more than 5 stars if i could - especially now i know how the Amazon star rating system is benchmarked by those authors and publishers.....
