My View: I've read this novel a bunch of times and somehow I keep picking it up. It's one of my go-to books when I just need some comfort and entertainment, like the Gallagher Girls, The Secret Life of Bees, and Secrets of My Hollywood Life. The story is well told and never gets slow. The voice is natural, but extremely entertaining in a subtle way. I'm always satisfied with reading it, and never feel as if the re-read was a waste of time. The message is subtle, unobtrusive to the plot, and sweet. I like the fact that the plot could just be interesting if you read it for surface-level content, but it can definitely be meaningful for those who want more from it. I love the characters as if they were real people, although I still feel comfortably outside of the story as my alter-ego, Carrie, tells it. Hilarious and cute, an altogether perfect before-bed book.
