I found the book really hard to get into, although I really like the writing style, I didn't bond with any of the characters. (I must say that I normally struggle to get into books - i guess it's having dc and not enough time to read something I don't know that I'm already enjoying)

However, I became glued to it one evening and stay up until stupid o'clock to finish the second half!

I took a while to get into the book as like Loler I didn't particularly like the main character but as I grw to like her I got into the book more. I liked the humour in the book. Overall it was okay and I am glad I stuck with this until the end.

I enjoyed this book right from the start, I thought it was really funny, and maybe I've spent too much time in posh London gyms (pre DC) because it really struck a chord with me when they were describing the gym and the people in there.

It was great fun, I loved it.

Hi,
I have finished this one already (got it very early from WTD) and quite enjoyed it to start off with, nice and easy to read and quite entertaining.

I liked the whole Greek family bit although I thought it could have been developed a bit more (although it's not really that sort of book).

I got a bit bored in the middle because it all seemed fairly predictable, but I did finish it and thought it was ok.

I didn't really identify with the main character or like her much, I thought she was pretty lazy and that makes me cross.
