Artık aşkı ve doğru adamı aramaktan vazgeçmiş bir kadın… ve sonrasında başına gelen tarjikomik olaylar…
Kathryn (Kit) Jennings otuz yaşında, en yakın arkadaşı Mel Melrose ile Toronto’da yaşamaktadır. Kit’in kalbi o kadar çok kırılmıştır ki artık aşkı ve doğru adamı bulmaktan tamamen vazgeçmiş ve kendince bir ilişki modeli geliştirmiştir: “Eskiyle Seks.”
Ama Kit’in “Eskiyle Seks” ismini verdiği bu planı düşündüğü şekilde gelişmez ve Kit kendisini mutfak tezgâhının üzerinde duran dört yüzüğün karşısında bulur. Kit acaba bu tekliflere ne yanıt verecek? Kendisi için eşinden boşanan Marc’ın mı, bir zamanlar her şeyini paylaştığı, ama kendisini terk eden yakışıklı ve seksi sevgilisi Derek’in mi, kendisini aldatan ve onunla sadece seks yaptığını düşündüğü eski sevgilisi Rob’un mu yoksa bir seçim yapmak zorunda olmadığını söyleyen rock yıldızı Kevin’ın mı teklifini kabul edecek acaba?
I didn't mind this book, but like so many chick-lit books, it drove me nuts in places. The characters suddenly behaved in ways that were completely unsuspected and contrary to any prior character development, they were hard to swallow, and let's face it, when it came down to it, most of the book is the main character reveling in all of the attention from these men and the resultant engagement rings.
The only characters I ended up liking were the sideline characters. Mainly because once their characters were developed, if they did something surprising, it was in a good way.
In the end, she probably makes the right decision for her, but it was unsatisfying for me.
The book is fairly well written and I tore through it because I wanted to know what happened, and I loved the fact that it was set in Toronto.
not my normal choice of books - but just finished 2 really good books and was looking for something else quick! Found this in the office. It's reads like a CBC sitcom right now...reading about her going home to North Bay, and living in Toronto...kind of funny!
Well I can't say this was the best piece of literature I've ever read. Not the best writing either. Cute little, quick read...very much disappointed with the ending. It was a lot of build up for such a short ending which really wasn't all that exciting.
It really was similar to any other chick lit book, and romantic comedy movie that you might go to your girlfriends with...
Overall I can't say that I would be recommending this book to anyone.
It was really cute. It's a total beach read but she can tell a story and I like the characters a lot. It was a nice way to shake off the effect of the terrible book that I had read before. I also love that a Canadian wrote this and that I knew all the references. Very cool. I will read her stuff again.
Total chick lit,but based in Toronto and fell in love with the characters. The book starts with three engagement rings from 3 different guys on her kitchen counter and then we start 6 months earlier to share this crazy journey.Fun fluff.
