My Thoughts:
When this book began I think my expectations were too high. I expected a flawless story from the way everyone talked it up. I was disappointed when I saw that it wasn’t. Finally I accepted that it’s her first book and then I was really able to enjoy it. The characters were fun and all so different. The setting was typical but she wrote what she knew so I can appreciate that.
The plot was enjoyable to me because I love The Hills. It was fun to really see how Lauren felt about her reality TV experience shine through. I was able to see it’s not just a cake walk. The ending to this story was AMAZING! I had been iffy about the book until the last ten chapters, but the final chapter BLEW it away! I was amazed with how she wrote a cliffhanger.
I would say fans of reality TV and chick lit should check this out.
Quotes:
Here is a random quote I found by opening to a random page:
She sounded louder then usual and a little drunk.

Great review! This book sure is talked about because of its famous author. I have bought it, but I have not read it just yet :)
This sounds OK...I'm not a big fan of celeb-written books, but your review makes me want to read it! (:
PS. I am LOVING the new background...it's super-cute!
I really enjoyed this book, but it took awhile for it to take off. Once the show began, I thought it got really interesting. The ending definitely had me picking up Sweet Little Lies right away too. I'm glad you enjoyed it too!
