Is breaking a trust alright? And the hypocrisy at the end of the book where she bann everyone from "borrowing" again.Īnother part is at page 404 where Holly.thinks it is alright to write a cheque to repay her debts while knowing her account does not have the $$$ to cover it. Hey, the dresses are entrusted to the museum. Secondly, what I don't like is that the book seems to be giving rewards to bad behaviour.Holly"borrowed" dress from the museum without permission. Whenever she is in a fix, someone sure to be there to help her.Īnother illogical point is would any woman who just bailed her fiance from jail, who was in jail in because soliciting sex from a minor, would let her fiance sleep with her that very night? It would have been a great bonus if the woman had nit already let him rot in jail rather that letting him "screw" her that night. Īnd there seems to be too much lucky break for holly. Suspenseful moments, holly doesn't seems to have any urgency. Holly supposed to.be a working class girl chasing a promotion, had a fiance, met a rich guy, lost her luggage which contain priceless dress from the fashion museum. I know chic lit is supposed to be honey sweet, light and allowance should be given if the plot is a bit "stretched" but this one is just over the topįirst of all, the story.
