So I decided to read this book because Vogue had given it rave reviews. And since Vogue is basically my bible I decided to give it a try thinking it would be truly amazing. But it wasn't-at all. I tried to get through the whole book but finally gave up around 50 pages from the end because I felt like I had better things to do and I was just wasting my time. (

2.5 stars. Interesting idea, but 100 pages longer than it needed to be. (

Interesting concept, but poorly written and formulaic...like a low-rent version of The Devil Wears Prada. (

I enjoyed this book, I was sucked in and there's not really anything that bothered me about it, but I can't give it more than 3 stars.

This is straight up chick lit, set in the art world of New York. I didn't really realize that at first, but by that time I was in it and having a pretty good time. It does get into the whole subject of creativity and doing something with your life vs holding yourself back (in a pretty light way) and that's always good for something. (

I pulled this book off the library shelf because of its fetching title, and I checked it out when I read it was all about the NYC art scene which I used to be fascinated by years ago. Although a bit chick lit, I really enjoyed the story and loved the heroine Mia. She felt very real, and even though she was jaded by her time as a gallery girl there was a real vulnerability and honesty about her which was so appealing. The other characters were both fun and annoying as they should be, and I loved this little glimpse into the world of contemporary art collecting and the craziness that it can entail.
