2.0 out of 5 stars Wait for the library to stock this..., 1 May 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Bad Boy (Paperback)
I have always enjoyed Olivia Goldsmiths books, they are funny, witty and often have a twist in the tale. This story is no where near imaginative as 'Flavour of the Month' or 'Young Wives', in fact if her name wasnt on the cover I wouldnt have wasted my money. The concept is quite fascinating,I would love to scrub up some of my male friends, but I am sorry to say the story does not live up to expectations. I am deeply disapointed as Ms Goldsmith generally writes such good stories. I am still a fan, and will wait with eagerness for her next book in hope that its better than this one.

2.0 out of 5 stars Frothy Chick Fic, Seattle-Style, 25 Feb 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Bad Boy (Paperback)
Olivia Goldsmith is known for her sharp-ish wit and keen observations. Her books are usually geared towards the late-30s (plus) reader ("First Wives' Club", "Fashionably Late"), but "Bad Boy" is her attempt to grab a piece of the new young market of Chick Fic readers.

In "Bad Boy" the reader is presented with the other side of the "can't find love" coin. Jon is a successful nice guy who can't find a girl. Tracie is his best friend who knows that all girls like bad boys. With the help of Tracie, Jon is sure he can overcome his nerdy ways to become the bad boy that attracts all the women.

It's a predictable story, but it's kind of fun to see things from the point of a guy who is a loser in the game of love. I would recommend this as a beach read, for mindless fun.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pleasant, 9 May 2007
By M. Burton (Essex) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Bad Boy (Paperback)
This is the first novel I have read by Olivia Goldsmith and I'm not entirely impressed. The story is predictable and has been done by many authors but just with their own twist added.
The plot starts of slowly and is really bland with no life to it, the narrative needs to grip the reader and sadly this just doesn't do that.
The ending is rushed as the reader is trying to read faster just so they can move on from the annoying arguement tracie and jon have.
The only enjoyable bit of the book were the lessons jon were receiving from tracie.
If men believe they have to act like that to get a woman then they really don't know.
Read this book for something light on holiday because it doesn't take much attention to find out what is happening

This is the story of a geeky IT exec (Jon)and his journalist female friend (Tracie). Exec is too nice to get any 'action'. Read more
