Summary: It started wonderful, slowing to the end.
Review: I really enjoyed the first 2/3 of the book. It was very lighthearted, and enjoyable, however, I was quite dissapointed with the end.
Rating: 
Summary: Hilarious and true to life
Review: I loved this book. It made me laugh so much. Just goes to show how much we wonder if todays single thirtysomethings really do want committment after all. They spend years obsessing about it all then when it finally happens they no longer want it. I hope I don't end up in that situation.

Summary: A pleasant surprise
Review: This book was bought on a lark and turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Although I could see how some readers would find the heroine annoying after a while, this was a light, enjoyable reading experience.

Summary: Disappointing ending, sometimes annoying
Review: I picked up this book because of the apparent similarities to Bridget Jones' Diary. It was an okay book in that I wanted to finish it and find out what happened. However, it just so happened that the copy of the book I had was missing the last pages (the pages 344-377 just kept repeating to the end), so I had to go through the trouble of going back to the bookstore to get a new copy to find out if Tiffany finally found the man she was so desparately looking for.

Summary: A must for all single women!!
Review: This book is a wonderful look at the singles scene. Though the British language may be a little hard to follow for some, the story itself eliminates any difficulties. Every single woman should read this book.

Summary: I laughed out loud
Review: Funnier than Bridget Jones, this is a terrific example of the emerging genre of thirty-something single women seeking Mr. Right. While not an intellectual read, the writing style is fast-paced and extremely witty. I could not put this book down, and found myself laughing out loud at the beach. Even better if you're in advertising!

Summary: Not hilarious but still charming
Review: To begin, I should confess that I LOVED Bridget Jones's Diary. In fact, I thought it was one of the funniest books I have read -- ever. I thought that I would love Tiffany Trott too but unfortunately, I kept waiting for her to get some courage or buck up. Something. She was likable. She did make me laugh. But, she annoyed me too. By about page 5, I was very sick of "I didn't really say that...I actually said . . ." phrase. Sometimes it was on a page 3 times. But, if you can over look that, you will probably really enjoy this book.

Summary: Much funnier than Bridget Jones' Diary
Review: It took me three weeks or at least it seemed like it to wade through Bridget Jones' Diary, while I speed through Tiffany in two days!! The book tells the tale of Tiffany Trott, a British 30 something in search of the perfect man to marry. A must read

Summary: A Total Grin-Fest from start to finish!
Review: I could NOT put this book down! I had a big grin on my face the whole way through, and I laughed out loud, over and over (no mean feat with a book, yea many books make you smile, but few can actually make you laugh out loud. I totally loved Tiffany and her pals, she is brilliant! And the way she describes the whole relationship "jungle" is just superb! I am really jealous of all the people who have not yet read it! My only criticism is the way the author kept saying a witty retort, then saying "Well actually I didn't say that, but..." This sentence was used at least several hundred times (well it SEEMED like it) throughout the book, I found it most tiresome.Please, please - there HAS to be a sequel?! There just HAS to be!! I for one cannot wait, and will be checking out the bookstores 'til it arrives!

Summary: BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY, with an even less convincing ending
Review: Comparisons between between Tiffany and Bridget, two British, 30-something neurotic career women in search of romance and marriage, are inevitable. While both are entertaining, and will resonate with just about any woman with a comparable demographic profile of the two protagonists, TIFFANY comes up short in much the same way BRIDGET did. TIFFANY is an enjoyable and easy (if not a tad too long) read, but doesn't live up to the promised jacket cover premise: that over the course of the novel, she sees the downside of marriage and family in her friends' lives, and comes to appreciate her own life and the value of singledom.
