Journal Entry 1 by dark-draco from Ledbury, Herefordshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, December 22, 2009
 This is one that I rescued from my sister's bookshelf, as she was going to get rid of the lot before she moved out - can't have that now!

Journal Entry 2 by dark-draco from Ledbury, Herefordshire United Kingdom on Saturday, February 20, 2010
Anna considers herself ugly and too tall, but is surrounded by beautiful models and actors. All she wants is a bit of pay rise and a promotion. But when she bumps into the famous director, Mark Swan, he offers her the chance to get noticed by her company and suddenly everything is looking up. She's liked at work, she's met a nice, rich man who wants to marry her, her friends are acting like normal people and she's suddenly found a figure beneath her dowdy clothes. Only, she isn't happy and can't decide what is wrong!
I was really surprised by this book - it isn't 'my' thing, as I prefer a good thriller or fantasy novel. But I was hooked by the characters very early on. Yes, Anna's boos, flatmates and friends are total stereotypes, yes, you know that there is going to be a a happy ending, but somehow, the excellent writing keeps you hooked. I read this over two days and couldn't help but have a huge grin throughout the last chapter. Still don't like 'chick-lit' but will be checking out more by this author in the future.
