Mr. Maybe
7 journalers for this copy...
Got at a book sale - proceeds went to Operation Gratitude (care packages for soldiers overseas). To be read.From amazon.com:
To Libby Mason, Mr. Right has always meant Mr. Rich. A twenty-seven-year-old publicist, she’s barely able to afford her fashionable and fabulous lifestyle, and often has to foot the bill for dates with Struggling Writer Nick, a sexy but perpetually strapped-for-cash guy she’s dating (no commitments–really). So when Ed, Britain’s wealthiest but stodgiest bachelor, enters the picture, her idea of the fairy-tale romance is turned on its head. Libby soon finds herself weighing the advantages of Nick’s sexual prowess and tender heart against Ed’s luxurious lifestyle and unlimited retail therapy. But when the diamond shopping commences, Libby is forced to realize that the time for “maybe” is up.
Taking romantic comedy to a hip, sparkling new level, Mr. Maybe is a classic tale of what happens to one girl when her heart and her head aren’t looking for the same thing. With a laugh a minute and a heroine whose struggles in the dating jungle will remind you of your own, Mr. Maybe is a story that will leave you smitten.

I have just received Mr maybe and yes it definetely qualifies under the category of chick lit.
I have read the first ten or so chapters and it is a great laugh.
As it looks like it will be a beautiful weekend here in Vancouver I plan to finish the novel over the weekend so I plan to request the address of the next in the ring.

Received today! It looks very cute and hopefully I'll be able to get to it in the next few days. I'm not sure I can read it in public with the cover being as it is! ;-P
Completely lovely. It really was another excellent piece of chick lit by Jane Green. The characters all seemed believable (well maybe not Nick, he was just so wonderful, broke, but wonderful) and Libby was so easy to relate to. I think my favorite character in the book might be her father. He was great. Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed this one and will be passing it on to spaceystacey ASAP. Thanks everyone! :-D
Just received in the mail on Friday, July 30th. Will be reading shortly and journalling again.

Quick fun read - mailed out to Lemondrop on 11/23!?!?
Thanks butternut, this arrived in the mail today. I'll be starting it soon!
I wasn't too crazy about this book in the beginning, but I stuck with it and it got much better. I liked the style of writing, it was as if I was in Libby's head, hearing all her thoughts. Many parts made me laugh and I really enjoyed the story. I already have the next person's address so I'll be mailing this book out today.
Yay, it's here! I have one more bookring before it, but hopefully I'll get it finished quickly!
I had a bit of a hard time getting into the book at first, but once I finally did, I didn't stop reading. It's one of the better chick lit books I've read so far. Although I liked this one, I didn't enjoy it near as much as Jemima J. Thanks for sharing!
Mailing to jenvince on 12/14.
