Advantages: cuddle up and snuggle down book
Disadvantages: I couldn't put it down
The story is about a single 34 year old woman named Jess Monroe, working behind the scenes on a daytime TV show. After a run of hopeless relationships Jess has decided that she is happy single, until her friend Kara decides to buy her an ad on an Internet dating site for her 34th birthday. Jess at first is annoyed and embarrassed, but after thinking about it for a while she decides to give it a go.
The story continues with her having a string of predictably disastrous dates, with all sorts of strange men – most of which have not told her the truth. maybe sending Jess a photo that was taken 10 years ago or maybe not telling her the fact that they are actually married! Will Jess ever find the guy she looking for.
then in the book she also finds out that her sister livvy has breat cancer. so you see hows she deals with this as well as the dating
I found the book a definate snuggle and rea in bed book. it was enjoyable, it was quite funny in parts,
the part where Jess found out that her sister had breast cancer was quite touching, as it dealt with the way a relative feels when they find out someone close to them is ill.
As we all would possibly go through the thoughts of how we would cope with the loss of a sister and the way she felt she couldn’t talk to anyone about it, as her sister dealing ith an illness and her thoughts would be so irelavant in perspective. It makes the problems of her love life look tiny compared, and makes her realise what’s really important in life.
However, on the subject of the breast cancer storyline, I thought perhaps it was a bit glossed over (if that’s the right expression!). What I’m trying to say (without giving away too much of the plot) is that it probably wouldn’t be much help or comfort to anyone who was actually suffering from cancer, as it was written almost as if she just had flu or something.
Summary: I think most of us have done some of this book at sometime
