review 1: I am a man's man with a confession. I actually watch, and enjoy, Project Runway. As a result, I am familiar with just about all the fashionista references in the story.The story was fairly well developed and the characters were interesting to a point. I enjoyed the story and would have rated it 4 stars if it were not for the very lame ending. The ending did not do justice to the rest of the tale. Read this if you like fashion. There are some good oner liners and witty dialogue to ponder.
review 2: This book reminded me of a lot of subjects: Heidi Klum, Devil Wears Prada and Rebecca Bloomwood from the Shopaholic series, because of all the fashion jargons & mentions of designer labels :) All that's missing is Tim Gunn saying "Make it work!" while clapping ... morehis hands. (Okay, that was totally irrelevant, but I just felt like adding it, LOL).I like the mystery that surrounded the death of Gracie Pomerantz, the financial backer of fashion mogul, Jeremy St. James. It's up to Laura Carnegie (again, no relation to that Carnegie) to find out the truth about the murder in the office. Intriguing, yes! Had me guess the culprit for about 7 times, another yes! And when I got to the fashion show, BAM! I was lost with all the glitz and splendor. Somehow, during these mystery quest, I found myself uttering Heidi Klum's famous words - "One day you're in. The next day you're out." less
