Anyone read Dorothy Koomson?

Totally agree, wigwambam, the typos and grammatical errors were countless. Whoever edited this book should have been sacked. I groaned out loud at when she devoted half a page to describing a shampoo.

The book would have been half the length if the drivel and twee descriptions had been cut out, and I wouldn't have wasted so much precious time reading it.

Haylstones - I like her! And I too sobbed so much in Goodnight Beautiful - I didn't think I would be able to finish it either.I actually did what I never ever do and peeked at the end as I didn't think I would be able to to cope without knowing what happened to him! In fact, I started a thread on here after reading it, and got zilch replies

I have read the chocolate run, marshmallows for brekkie, and the cupid effect and enjoyed all of them- although the cupid effect least so.

I have MBFG next on my 'to read' pile and Goodnight Beautiful is on my wish list. I LOVE chick lit, as I rarely get chance to read more than a few chapters at a time and it's really easy to dip in and out of.

I found DK books a refreshing change from the norm (even though I also love the norm iykwim) as her writing style is slightly different and the topics are slightly removed from the usual boy gets girl theme.

All of that said I can appreciate where people are coming from with the plots being slightly unbelievable (I find Cecelia Aherns books like this too, and I have read a few like this recently including one about imaginary friends?! but can't remember the author), but credit where credit is due it is only chick lit after all!

The plot of MBFG isn't just implausible though, lauzie - although it's definitely that. The whole thing collapses because one key aspect of the plot in particular is based on a glaring factual inaccuracy - something happens which is an absolute impossibility, and the entire plot - the whole story - revolves completely around that.

I can't believed she was published. Dire

I agree wigwambam and highlander- I thought "My Best Friends girl" was badly written, unbelievable, over sentimental, predictable rubbish.

The Cupid Effect (2003)
The Chocolate Run (2004)
My Best Friend's Girl (2006)
Marshmallows for Breakfast (2007)
Goodnight, Beautiful (2008)

I have all of these still to read.

I've got most of those here read once if anyone wants them?
Let me know
I quite enjoyed them!
