This book was so good. I was laughing so many times. Made me think about my close bond with my friends from high school and the funny things between us. Great chick lit book, you must read!

Waverly Branson is engaged to marry the man of her dreams (in fact she kind of wonders if he is a little out of her league). But two weeks before the wedding he calls it off. He says he just doesn't love her anymore. (Um...I might have to murder the guy for putting me through something like that!). Waverly eventually starts to pick herself up and start living again with the help or her two friends.

She is embarrassed and feels like a failure about the end of her engagement so she proceeds to tell almost everyone that she was the one who called it off. Meanwhile the guy goes on to get married shortly after and she actually runs in to them in the grocery store! Talk about torture!

She has a great job in sports PR and her life over the next year or so just follows some of her (mis)adventures of being a single girl. As a single girl I could relate. But her life is much more glamorous than mine. I mean she befriends a famous basketball player at one of her trade shows and then becomes BFFs and shopping buddies with his wife (a Olympic figure skater) later while in NYC.

It was kind of comforting that she doesn't automatically fall in love with a new prince charming. In fact she kind of develops a crush which I enjoyed!

Overall this was a good, quick read! A great chick-lit book for the summer!

Reader - are you looking for a chick lit to curl up with this winter? This is the one. (Along with its sequel). From the very beginning you fall in love with Waverly Bryson, a woman with a unique name who by the end of chapter one is left at the altar and trying to recover from the humiliation of it all. A girl who has two wonderful characters to surround her and keep her grounded, these two were both hilarious and heartwarming at the same time.

My favorite part of this book was the writing. It wasn't too artsy or crazy, it was honest, real and true to the ease of reading that is what makes chick lit one of my favorite genres. The language makes it current and I just love it.
The other part that I absolutely loved was her journey. As I never want to ruin a book for those who will pick it up, I must say it was nice to see a character who had a true journey from the beginning to the end. In both her personal and professional life, she found true happiness in the end - a new happiness that I didn't think she thought she knew she could.

A wonderful chick lit read that I can't recommend more. For those who absolutely love a girlie book with a little heart and soul.

I read this all on one Sunday morning. I didn't want to put it down. I wanted to know which guy Waverly was going to end with, and it was funny too!
