review 1: I found this book extremely hard to get into. The first half of this book is incredibly boring and just a waste of words. Although the book does eventually start to get a little more interesting it wasn't enough to really hold my attention. There was no depth to this book but it probably didn't help with the author raising one or two new issues each chapter in the second half of the book. Ultimately nothing happened in the first half of this book and too much happened in second half. I believe this is one of those times where the phrase 'don't quit your day job' should stand for something. This is another case of a fashion editor thinking that writing and editing fashion magazines, means that they'll be good at writing books, let's be real, this is no 'Devil's wear Pr... moreada'.
review 2: I found the writing difficult for some reason at the beginning, its not how I would write and not in the style of books I usually read. Once I got past that though the story was easy to read and enjoyable. A little predictable in parts but overall an interesting look at how people change post uni and whether their friendships are as solid as they thought they were. Not a bad book but nothing special less

not my usual type and found it a little slow but was alright

Long, parfois ennuyant, facile a prevoir. Rien d'original.
