Rating: Summary: An easy, fun, fast read Review: Reading Unzipped is like following someone around for awhile and just observing their life. It's written in a Helen Fielding/Brigit Jones type format although not as funny but interesting just the same. It's basically a bunch of girlfriends, some married some not talking about sex or lack there of. It's honest and sometimes a bit shocking,(as with main character Courtney's friend who leaves her husband to become a slave in the S & M culture) It's a very easy, fun read.

Rating: Summary: Obviously model for Carrie in "Sex and the City" Review: This book is funny and charming and as I was reading, it seemedobvious that Courtney Weaver was the model for Carrie in HBO's series"Sex and The City." If you enjoy that show, you will enjoy this book immensely. Weaver writes in a breezy, conversational style that is light and easy to read. The book isn't about sex, per se, although there are many references to it, but about relationships and being single in your 30's. Very enjoyable.
Rating: Summary: A delicious page-turner Review: Utterly contemporary, intelligent and witty, Courtney Weaver's "Unzipped" is a delicious page-turner. Sex and mating rituals are explored with a clear, ironic eye, and though she boldly mines her friends' private lives, I never had the feeling she was exploiting them. As she reports from the front about what it's like to be a single woman in today's confusing world, she comes across as strong yet vulnerable, charming and good-humored. She is also pitiless and self-deprecating in chronicling her own neuroses, which makes her all the more endearing. Telephone dispatches from her diverse friends, from San Francisco to New York to London, were endlessly fascinating installments of their latest dramas. I've already given the book to two of my girlfriends and they also enjoyed it enormously. Weaver's fresh, insightful voice made me eager to read a follow-up.
