Rating: - Sloppy writing!
This is an easy going, quite fun book but it is fairly predictable and is very sloppily written. It's full of silly mistakes, like: Athena driving at 3.30 pm on her way to lunch at her sister's house where they are all drinking mid morning; talk of the 'autumn sun' in January; the Seychelles being in the Pacific; and many more similar mistakes. Also the book starts in January, weeks and weeks pass (& half the book), and it's still talking about a late January day. These easily avoidable errors slightly ... Read More

The author seems to spend more time detailing designer outfits than she does concentrating on the plot, and it all came across as rather shallow.
Although I sometimes ... Read More

However halfway through the book, I suddenly realised that the description was all I was getting, ... Read More

Rating: - Now that's what I call 'chick-lit'...
After reading some not-so-fabulous chick lit lately, LB delivers another corker in 'Glitz'. I just loved this novel from beginning to end - it's obsession with designer name-dropping at every turn, it's somewhat delightful shallowness, it's straight-out-of-Hollywood plot - marvellous!
I mean, let's be right, I don't pick up this sort of book and expect to be profoundly awakened - I pick it up to marvel at the lives of the rich and famous and to become utterly engrossed in some good old fashioned storytelling. ... Read More
