Summary: Pretty good
Review: I enjoyed this book. Parts were pretty funny. The fat counting is pretty old news now but I imagine it was of more interest when it was written. What a jerk Diana's husband was!! He was really pretty funny though. Chris seemed just about perfect. If not for JoJo, maybe he would have been. Diana did not seem to live a very moral life once she separated, lost weight, and was sought after. A bad example for her kids. But I liked the book anyway.

Summary: Great fun GIRL Power read !
Review: In the vein of The First Wives Club....
This is an incredibly funny book where a woman who gets dumped by her less than winner husband cause she is fat makes the best of things- get thin- makes a fortune and wins the hunk next door and has some wild sexy affairs along the way-meantime her ex gets his just deserts in the end! The book has explicit sex- but is handled with sensitivity. I really liked the heroine and could feel her struggle and empathize with her. The only thing I found annoying was the harping on the diet throughout ( it is easy to skim and ignore and get back to the story though). This was written in the days of counting fat grams so that is the diet slant here- really funny considering things are all about counting carbs today..... ah well! The book is fun, funny, sexy and made me laugh and smile- esp the very end!Great curl up and read with a glass of wine or hang by the pool book!
