If you haven't, don't.
This was a couple of hours of my life that I'll never get back. It's not that Lauren Weisberger can't write, she can, it's just that she tried so hard to make all of characters neurotic sluts (sorry, but it's the only word) that they weren't actually likeable people. They all called each other best friends and then got upset when anything good happened to the other ones. They never listened to each other and each of them needed a good slap in the face.
It was like Sex and the City on steroids, and i think that was exactly what she wanted it to be. Even the characters could've each been passed as one of the Sex and the City girls, no originality at all. This book failed to get more than two stars anywhere - believe the bad press.
I had to go out and buy a David Sedaris book just to clear the filth from my mind.
