Summary: I REALLY TRIED TO LIKE THIS BOOK
Comment: I truly did. The first few pages were great. The Cat Formerly Known as Prince was right on. His antics mirrored my own cats' behavior when on the phone. The phone call from Josie's mother was fall down funny. But that's where it ended. Once she got on that plane to New York, this book slowed way down. The situations became contrived. Would someone so recently hurt by her soon to be ex-husband fall that quickly for Matt? Would Matt fall so quickly for Josie? And the way he treated Holly, the PR girl, was awful. Who would want someone who could use another woman that way? I kept with the book--there were some really funny scenes. I thought the parts about self-centered Damien were good. All in all, it wasn't terrible, but there are so many better books out there to be read.

Summary: A so-so chick lit
Comment: "For Better Or Worse" centers on Josie Flynn who was recently divorced from Damien who cheated on her with his secretary. Melonie. Josie's self-esteem plummeted and started losing faith in love and men. Josie's cousin was getting married in New York and as the bridesmaid, Josie was flying to New York from London to attend the ceremony. During the flight, Josie sat next to Matt, a rock journalist who seemed interesting and promising. At the same time, Damien realized that Melonie was unbearable and that he actually missed Josie. Damien then planned to fly to New York to win Josie back.
The entire book centers around Martha's preparation for her wedding. This book resembles quite a few of the romantic comedies out there where the two main characters always misses each other - for instance, just as Josie left the restaurant, Matt would arrived there. The plot is actually not very believable as both Josie and Matt seemed to "fall in love" despite only spending half a day with each other. This is the second book of Kelly Ripa's Book Club that I am reading and I must say it is much better than Carly Phillip's "The Bachelor." I would have given this a three and a half stars but since it is impossible, I am more incline to give it a four instead of three. The reason being, despite the predictable plot, Carole Matthews actually held my attention and the book was written well.

Summary: Not Better Nor Worse
Comment: This is definitely a light read. It was entertaining throughout the book but it left me feeling like something was missing. It wasn't very memorable compared to others. I felt that this book was good but could have been so much better. It is good for those who have been jilted and feel that things couldn't possibly get better.
