5.0 out of 5 stars good stuff, March 8, 2004
This book is one of my favourites of all time. Ok so its not the great literary masterpiece of the 20th century but its such easy reading and its so well done. It reads like a movie, a really good romantic comedy. Its laugh out loud funny and is an escape from the realities of life for a few hours. I always read this when i'm in a bad mood. It never fails to cheer me up and make me laugh. My favourite Jill Mansell, though its not the first one I've read. In essence this is good stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Got me back to reading, July 2, 2004

I happened to pick this book up in Portugal while there on vacation. I used to be an avid reader but like everything else, I lost time to endulge in this pleasure!
The book was laying amongst a lot of other dicarded books and the cover caught my eye.
From the first page on, I was hooked. It is funny, lots of characters to follow without being difficult, lots of laughs! I liked it so much I brought it back to Canada with me and now I am on the hunt for the rest of Jill Mansell's books.
I would reccommend her books to anyone who likes a good, funny and romantic story. There is nothing in this book that is offending and no violence!
Thank you Ms Mansell for giving me back the ability to MAKE TIME TO READ.

This review is from: Staying at Daisy's (Paperback)
I was looking for something a cut above the terrible dime store romance novels I read as a teenager. There are some things I really like about the book: good dialog, multiple subplots interesting characters. But then something happened that completely ruined it for me. The main protagonist is set up to be a responsible together grounded person who has learned from the stupid mistakes she made in her past. She meets a guy and they dislike each other and engage in witty repartee. I'm totally with the program. What a fun book I thought. Then two days after they meet the guy shows up at her place of work. He tells her he needs her help on her day off with "something" but won't tell her what it is but it isn't a date. At first she says she won't go unless he tells her what it is but then as he is walking out the door calling her bluff she gives in and agrees to go off with him in his car for this unknown favor. What kind of sniveling idiot agrees to go off with someone she barely knows and doesn't really like because he shows up at your workplace and demands you do him a favor? A favor he refuses to tell one about in advance?

This is exactly the kind of controlling behavior the protagonists of dime store romance novels always put up with. Would the author want her teenage daughter reading about a together woman who puts up with controlling behavior as if it were perfectly normal?
