Summary: So so witty
Review: I am an avid fan of Marian Keyes, and have read all her books so far. I have to say even though "Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married" wasn't my favourite, I absolutely loved it...Marian Keyes is just so funny and her writing style extremely witty. I laughed out loud for most of the book, and being Irish myself the humour was right down my street...I also recommend "Rachel's Holiday" and "Last Chance Saloon" which are the newer ones. If you want a light-hearted read, and something to make you laugh a LOT then you HAVE to get this book or any of the others. I can't explain how funny they really are...and although the romantic endings are a little toooo perfect, they do leave you with a warm and fuzzy feeling inside :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What else to add?
Review: Makes you wonder:couldn't all relationships to lifetime buddies end just like Lucy's and Daniel's?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A REAL HOOT!
Review: I absolutely LOVED this book! Definately in my top 10 books ever read. Keyes is right up there with another Irish writer- Mauve Binchy! Can hardly wait to read Watermelon.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married
Review: Like a small child, I was originally drawn to the book for its bright pink cover and gold lettering. Inside, I was delighted to find the most hysterical book I have read in years. The monologues that Lucy has are insightful and sharp. Her sarcastic descriptions are woven together with such sincerity that you take them at face value and then crack up! I have told all of my friends to read this book. It encapsulates the lives of college women, and young 20 somethings world wide. There is such a strong and perceptive character development among the room mates, it will remind you of your greatest friend and your biggest enemy. You root for her throughout the book because, naturally you want Lucy Sullivan to GET MARRIED! The choices of suitors leaves only one that you hope will be at the end of her aisle. A fabuous read for when you call in from your own rotten office to lay around and eat chocolates.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Slow in spots but worth sticking with
Review: I loved Marian Keyes' other books, and by the end, loved "Lucy Sullivan" too. Keyes does a great job of capturing the Bridget Jones-esque lifestyle and man-quest of 20something women. Her characters are believable. And the book is so darn funny! I laughed out loud a number of times, and kept reading passages to my husband, who found them as amusing as I did. This book does, however, have a tendency to ramble and could have used another edit or two to tighten it up. (In particular, conversations, especially nonsensical and ultimately annoying Gus-Lucy conversations, went on way too long.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lucy Sullivan Is Getting Married
Review: I loved this book! Lucy Sullivan could have been me or one of my best friends. Marian Keyes' sense of humor and wit made the character so real. I think that anyone who has ever been searching for themselves will really be able to relate to this book. Lucy became a friend to me and I was sad when I finished the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I love Lucy!
Review: As a young woman who was stuck with an Irish beer loving chauvenist like Gus myself once (- and dealt with him in a similar way!) this book was like reading about me. This is a great, easy read for those who want a fun love story without the cliches - yes, you know what will happen once you read about 2 chapters, but you'll enjoy every minute!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: trite and predictable
Review: Did Lucy absolutely HAVE to be addressed by her name in every single sentence?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful!
Review: What a delightful book this is! I did not want it to end. I laughed so hard I cried at many junctures. I have ordered "Watermelon" and can't wait to dig in...I have a new favorite author in Marian Keyes! I am lending this one to all of my single girlfriends!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: delightful!
Review: This was a delightfully written, light hearted look at a difficult subject.

Am now going to purchase "Watermelon" by same author.
