Ralph's Party
4 journalers for this copy...
This book was donated to our BookCrossing table yesterday on World Book Day, and I nabbed it as I love chick lit!
From Amazon.co.uk:
Sex, Romance, Destiny ... or just flatmates?
Meet the residents of 31 Almanac Road in a romantic, engrossing novel that takes you up the garden path, through the front door and into the most intimate parts of other people's lives.
Ralph and Smith are best friends. Until they both fall for Jem, their new flatmate. Jem's got a strong feeling that one of them's the man for her - but which one?
Karl and Siobhan live in the flat above. Happily unmarried for fifteen years, it looks as if nothing could spoil their domestic idyll.
Except maybe Cheri, the femme fatale in the top flat. She's got her eye on Karl and she isn't about to let his fat girlfriend stand in her way ...

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
I never got around to reading this one. I'm giving it to a friend, I hope you enjoy it!
EDITED TO ADD: The picture on the left is of Russell Square in London, where koodaaja and I released the book. If you look at the big version of the picture, you can see the book on the left-most bench.

This one was a truly enjoyable thing to read. All the main characters felt very real and were easy to relate to, but were at the same time interesting, funny, crazy in their own little ways... There was a good balance of emotions loaded into the story. I felt sorry for the bad luck of the characters, angry for their stupid mistakes, excited about their moments of success. A good storyline with many innovative turns of events and a really enjoyable ending. Liked it a lot!

I'm reading this one at a pace. It's chapters are in bite-sized lengths. The lives of the residents in the block are familiar somehow, and it's intriguing to see how their dreams & desires clash.
It's fairly balanced with a male to female character list who all have some depth and multi-faceted qualities.
Better than a soap, that's novels for yo.
