The story opens with the modern-day heroine Holly trapped in the flat-share from hell with members of Scary Clean Freaks Incorporated, ruled by the obnoxious Carol who "dispensed ... Robert de Niro-to-doomed gangster stares." Even when Holly escapes the suburban inquisition, life still isn't a bed of roses--she's an unemployed florist, in love with a recluse, and being bullied. She's in good company, though, when she moves in with a bunch of equally maladjusted misfits: Josh, a terminally nice boy, has issues; Kate, the high-flying, no-nonsense career girl, wilts every time a married man comes along; and then there's Addison, the drop-dead-gorgeous lodger ("Johnny Depp in geek form") who never leaves his room, already has a girlfriend (albeit over the Internet), and is a certified Star Trek fan.

This is going to bookcrosser ramson when I finish it.

Released on Thursday, May 01, 2003 at Bookcrosser's home in postal release, postal release USA.

Sending this to bookcrosser Ramson.

This book was a nice easy read, very funny in parts, I enjoyed it, passing it on to Ramson to read now.

Received in the mail today as part of a trade. Adding to the TBR pile for now. Hope to get to it soon.

6/30/03 Will finish this one up this evening. I really enjoyed the first three quarters of the book but am really finding the last couple of chapters to be just too far fetched for my taste.

Available for trade/release.

Thank you so much! This is now in my huge TBR pile!

I definitely liked this one better than Amanda's Wedding-the characters weren't so whiny and obnoxious. Holly is a great heroine to root for, and Addison... we like Addison.
This one will go to Kymberlie.

Released on Monday, October 20, 2003 at Pleasant Hill Post Office on Contra Costa Blvd. in Pleasant Hill, California USA.

This went to Kymberlie today.

Received today - thanks, jkate! Going on my to be read pile.
