I could really relate to Cassie's plight of not knowing what to do with her life although her situation was different. Fun chic lit romance that's also clean. ( )

Light reading that's fun and has a message! The shallow Cassidy undergoes transformation as bad things happen to her. Several parts were laugh-out-loud funny. This would make a good made-for-TV movie! ( )

a fun romp. ( )

It all starts with a $200 pair of boots. At least that's what Cassidy, the main character of this novel seems to think. She is perplexed by her run of bad luck--losing her job, finding out a neighbor has stolen a credit card and run up a huge balance, and buying the aforementioned boots--which look good but leave her with horrible blisters. So Cassidy ends up moving back home, with a mother who has undergone an extreme makeover and looks more like her sister. In fact, Cassidy is shocked to find out her mother is a former high school classmate of hers. All these changes throw Cassidy into a funk for a while, but with the help of God she will find out how to crawl out of her hole, improve her life, choose the right man, and ditch the wrong pair of boots.
This is a totally fun light read with a bit of a good message thrown in. Cassidy's over the top dilemmas made me feel better about my own. Definitely pick this one up if you enjoy chick lit. ( )

Has any other person in the world read a book by Chuck Palahnuik and Melody Carlson in the same day? What a switch!

This chick lit, slightly Christian adult novel is an easy, fast read. Cassidy is 31 years old, loses her boyfriend and her job, and decides to move back home. But her 55 year old mother is gorgeous, slim, and dating a boy a year older than Cassidy. Whoa. Talk about life-changing moments. Cassidy has to figure out who she likes, how she wants to spend the rest of her life, and keep a level, sane head. It's a cute, fun feel-good book. ( )
