The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing

Summary: What a Disappointment!
Review: Once again, I believed the hype surrounding a book and picked it up. I only paid a dollar and I want my money back. I am an English major and I read a lot of great old books, but there is lots of great contemporary fiction out there--this just isn't it. If you really want to read this book,I would recommend that you check it out from the library. It's not worth plunking down money for.

Summary: The title doesn't give a clue to what the book is about.
Review: The title doesn't give a clue to what the book is about. It isn't until the last part of the book that the title is even used. It is a metaphor for "hunting and fishing for a mate."

The book jumps around to different times in narrator Jane's life. Each deals with love and relationships. Some are quite interesting, other's not so.

I didn't read the book, I listened to it on tape. What I found most annoying was the constant, "he said, she said, I said." I'm not sure how it comes across in the written text, but as for being read aloud, it sounded as if it had been written by an amateur. But, this was the author's first book.

Summary: Bestseller for a reason!
Review: When I bought "The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing", I though that I had picked put an interesting summer read. Two days later I found that I had finished the whole book and was sad to see it go. Every page is soaked with experiences that any woman can relate to. The story is filled with ups and downs that carry your emotions with them through each turn. This book should be required for every girl. You won't be disappointed!!
