A Year in Van Nuys

Rating:
Summary: Brilliantly funny
Review: This wonderful book made me laugh out loud so many times that other people in the room began to eye me strangely. Honest, engaging and so winningly written that I read the entire book in one big delicious gulp.

Rating:
Summary: Run out and buy all her books
Review: What other compliments can I pay than saying that I ran out and bought every single one of her last books. She is absolutely the most insightfully funny writer alive. Superb book that deserves six stars! Looking forward to reading more books by her. (Go Sandra.)

Summary: Kvetch, Kvetch, kvetch...
Review: You know, I just couldn't get into this book. It reminded me a little of the cartoon, Cathy, and of Briget Jones's Diary (book, not movie): I feel as though someone needs to smack all these woman upside the head and tell them, "Get a life!"
I bought the book expecting to love it. I got about a third of the way through, and it just wasn't really going anywhere, so I said to myself, I'm over it.
It felt as though she was just trying too hard to be funny.
So I sold my copy on Amazon.[com.]
