 Really Good November 28, 2008
Lovin romance and chick lit!
It has been a really long time now since I read the book but when I did read it is was brilliant. Not the best book ever but good enough that I have read it twice. Definately recommend to anyone who loves to read romantic comedies.
 LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT! September 9, 2008

A brilliant book! Highly recommended! You'll laugh, you'll cry and you will absolutely identify with the main character, Emma, on her journey in this book. One of my all time favourites, couldn't put it down!
A wonderful feelgood story September 2, 2008

I've read all Sophie's shopaholic books, and I'm happy to report this is just as good. As usual with her books, it has it's share of laugh out loud moments, and my only complaint about it, is that it's too short, I didn't want it to end. This is chick lit romantic comedy at it's best.

what can i say?? BEST. BOOK. EVER!!
i picked it up. i read it. i loved it!!!
im 15 years old and i read this when i was 14. personally, i am not a huge fan of romantic novels but one day when i was bored and need a book to read for english i picked this one up simply because it looked nice. it is a good book because it is great for the teenage gap: it has a good balance of romance and comedy without being to over the top ans is generally just an enjoyable read. sophie kinsella's style of writing is light and easy to understand so makes this book a great choice for anyone who is looking to be entertained without having to take in too much.
 I can't believe the overall rating for this book! June 13, 2008

I have always been a lover of chick lit, Marian Keyes, Jane Green, love 'em all for a bit of light reading. So I've been eyeing the Sophie Kinsella books for a while and finally picked up 'Can You Keep a Secret?'...oh dear. Unfortunately I cannot keep the secret of how much I hated this book! Sadly I am the sort of person who cannot leave a book once I've started it and so I stayed until the bitter end.
I have never written a negative review (I would simply stay silent) so I'm very sorry Ms Kinsella. However, I have had to suffer an entire book where the plotline is so painfully obvious and the heroine was such an utter moron that if I were to meet someone like that I would shake her by the shoulders and tell her to stop being such an idiotic wimp! As the reader, I am generally meant to feel some sort of sympathy or empathy with the main character in these types of book, not so in this case. Emma Corrigan is an imbecile and the type of 'friend' one would tend to avoid at all costs. Nothing the character does is remotely realistic and the only reason I give this book 1 star is because if Emma can end up with a rich successful boyfriend AND a promotion, then there is hope for us all! Although I really think this is stretching the meaning of 'fiction' to it's outer limits, maybe it should be reclassified under 'fantasy'.
Usually I share my books with my friends and family or give them to the charity shop when I've finished with them. This time I simply left it on the bus and walked away. Now I'm off to pick up some Aldous Huxley in attempt to get some of those brain cells back...
