Book Description

January 1, 2006
"Love is blind (or at least nearsighted)" - Theresa Alan. When it comes to dating, Heather's been pretty lucky. Well, if you don't count the verbal flasher and the guy who started going out with another woman halfway through their first date. If only she could find a guy like her first love. Now, the one who got away just may lead her to the one she can't lose. "Cleo Barnes: Worst Blind Date Ever" - Holly Chamberlin. Nine months after Cleo Barnes dumped her cheating, lying boyfriend, she's become a full blown, she devil man hater. But when she spies her ex out with another woman, it's time to get serious and prove to him and the rest of the world that Cleo Barnes is alive and well and getting a man, whether she like it or not. "Love is like a box of chocolates". Judith Howland is the queen of disastrous blind dates. On the road to finding Mr Right, she's been fixed up with Mr Seriously Broke, Mr Grope, and Paw, and Mr. Certifiable. With all the good men taken, Claudia's not willing to sample even one more guy from the fix me up box, no matter how tempting. "Just Jennifer". Breezy California girl Jennifer Merryn has a knack for picking fun friends and butt enhancing jeans, but she's got lousy radar when it comes to men. So why not let her friends choose her blind dates, thirty different prospects in thirty days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truth about blind dating, January 24, 2006
By 
Alice (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Shaved My Legs For This?! (Paperback)
I thought this book was a lot of fun. I didn't get the feeling the characters were bitter as another reviewer stated (careful reading her review, as it gives everything away). I thought these stories were amusing and, ultimately, romantic, particularly Theresa Alan's and Lisa Plumley's tales of dating woes--Love is Blind (or at Least Nearsigted) and Just Jennifer are the titles, respectively.

4.0 out of 5 stars Laugh Out Loud Funny, December 28, 2006
This review is from: I Shaved My Legs For This?! (Paperback)
This was a very funny read, four separate stories (chic lit/blind dating escapades), the last story wasn't as good as the first three IMO...

...but it was a quick fun read, and definitely laugh out loud funny. I read this during the holidays while crying over a break up from the last year, and the book make me laugh and laugh and laugh ... 'twas that funny that it knocked the blues away :)

Go ahead and buy it chic lit fans :) Enjoy!

1.0 out of 5 stars Uh, no., April 18, 2006
This review is from: I Shaved My Legs For This?! (Paperback)
I never review books on Amazon, but I had to warn readers. This book was terrible...the stories boring and filled with bitterness. The Cleo Barnes story by Chamberline was horrible.

I don't suggest purchasing this book as it will likely leave you feeling like you'd wasted both your time and money on it.
