Summary: Great chick lit!!
Review: This book entered my life unexpectedly. I accidently picked it up instead of another more practicle read. I was delighted by the error. I love the characters in the book and their antics. This is a great twenty-something read for getting over a breakup or exploring a new viceral self.

Summary: A must read for all 20-something females!!
Review: I think that all women over the age of 20 need to read this book! The author shows how someone who we think is perfect, really has some qualities that are completely unattractive. I saw myself as well as many of frineds thorugh out this entire book, everyone has had some of these same things happen to them at one time or another.

Summary: Mlynowski Shines!
Review: Absolutely love Sarah's voice! Sometimes it can be a little bit awkward to read her stream-of-conciousness style, but she is hilarious and truly tells it like it is. Reading Milkrun was like listening to my best friend tell me about her life, not just reading a story in a book. Definitely recommend to friends!

Summary: low-budget Bridget
Review: I have to agree with the Dallas reader. Maybe I shouldn't have used this book to crush out a cigarette at page 63, but man, it's too painful to read any further. All this book really seems to do is babble about stupid minutiae. Hey, I like chick lit as much as the next, but come on. Don't insult me with this dribble. Read The Parker Grey Show instead. The editing is much better and the main character is so much more interesting.

Summary: Interesting Cover, Bad Title, Stupid Book
Review: This was the worst book of all of the Chick-Lit ones I have read. The only thing semi-original about it was the setting, with it taking place in Boston compared to New York. But Jackie ended up going New York and her friends lived there. So many of the problems I had with it were allready mentioned; such as the poor editing. Did anyone else notice that her roomate suddenly switched from teaching fourth grade to fifth grade halfway through? It also annoyed me how Jeremey was referred to as "Jer." I have never, ever heard that stupid nickname used. If the author thought that Jeremey was too long to keep writing she should have chosen another name. Jackie was not likeable and rude, I really didn't care whom she ended up with. Characters were indistinguishable and it was hard for me to ellict sympathy for any of them. The ending was unrealistic and rushed. This is the type of book that makes people think of Chick-Lit fans as uneducated readers that will read anything with a pink cover.

Summary: Best Chick Lit So Far!!
Review: Milkrun was the first chick lit book I've read in a while, and although I've read several others since Milkrun, I can't seem to find anything that measures up. The novel is easy to read and hard to put down. Every time I set down the book in the middle of one of Jackie's wild dates, I felt like I was missing out on the fun. Sarah Mlynowski is byfar my favorite author, and the only book that I've found since Milkrun that kept my attention is As Seen On TV, and I can't wait to read Fishbowl as soon as I can get my hands on it! I definitly recommend this book to anyone and everyone, especially if you're single or fresh out of a long-term relationship. Way to go Sarah!!

Summary: Laughing out Loud!
Review: This was the secound sarah Mlynowski novel that I read and I really can relate to her writing style. I think that I think like her characters, with all the random things that go throught there heads.
I would recomend this book to women who are in thier 20 to 30's and are looking for something fun and entertaining.
There was a lot of part where I was actaully laughing out loud. The only thing that I didn't like to much was the ending becuase I personally need things to be more finished. But I wouldn't hold it against the book at all. It was a wonderful read.

Summary: Now THIS is a cute book
Review: I'm getting so sick of this single-something genre, but this book, as well as Fishbowl, is pretty good.

Summary: Sarah Mlynowski Doesn't Hold Back
Review: I LOVED this book! I thought it was excellent. I will admit the editing was lacking. However I don't see that as the author's fault. She was probably quite dissappointed in that, as well. For the people who thought this book was "sloppy" or boring, that's just because you can't relate to the main character. The main character is SOOOOOOOO NOT lacking in depth. If you want a flowery, descriptive book, then this isn't it. This isn't one of those books that describes every inch of something just so you can become bored with all the adjectives and then forget what it was they were talking about by the time you get to the end of the sentence, anyway. No, the author delves right into the storyline and get's to the point with cute little metaphors and real-life emotions. I found myself laughing out loud NUMEROUS times with this book. I felt like I was reading MY life story! Too funny....This is a book for young women who over-analyze issues and find the humor in odd places. I thought it was great. I did end up wanting more at the end, but I think that happens with a lot of great books...you never want them to end. Great job Sarah Mlynowski!!! I look forward to your other books. Reading Milkrun made me want to read more!

Summary: Maybe it's who you know, not how well you write
Review: Because how else would this awful example of "writing" get published? Many of my complaints have been mentioned in previous reviews - the awful editing, the author's-annoying-tendancy-to-create-hyphenated-phrases, the Canadaisms revealing her lack of authority on the American setting, etc. My main concern is with the heroine, Jackie. She's so self-centered and annoying. When the primary character is so miserably flawed, the only hope for the story is if the character experiences a journey in which she grows, evolves and redeems herself in some way. Jackie doesn't grow, change, evolve or improve in any way. What is the point for the reader? Most of the other characters were so poorly developed, I could barely tell them apart. Finally, towards the end, Andrew showed some spark when he stood his ground with Jackie. But it was much too little, far too late.
