Recensioner

I laughed & I cried while reading this book. There were a few parts that did irritate me, like when Marley was ill and Grogan was talking about the cost of treatment, etc. All in all, though, I think this book was fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good read.

Not my usual type of book - I read it for my bookclub. Fluffy and entertaining. This would be a good vacation read.
