Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger

    I recently went on vacation with my family so luckily I had plenty of time on the plane to read. I started to read Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger before I left but I hadn't gotten very far. It is about three friends living in NYC who one night dare each other to do something completely different than the life they are use to living. The tagline on the back of the book says "Three best friends. Two resolutions. One year to pull it off." That's the best way to describe the book.

    For me the beginning of the book was boring and I just wasn't feeling it. I wanted to stop reading it but I can't do that because I always wonder how the book ends. Do you do that too? Anyways so since I started reading it I packed it in my purse for the trip and read it on the plane and one night in the condo and boy am I glad I did. I love this book! It was adorable and I feel like I am friends with the three main characters Leigh, Adriana, and Emmy. I was sad that the book ended because I just wanted to know what would happen next in their life. I would definitely suggest this book if you are looking for a good funny book where the main characters become more self empowered.

Ps- In case you were wondering and as you see in the picture Lauren Weisberger wrote the Devil Wears Prada and also Everyone Worth Knowing. I think I own Everyone Worth Knowing but not sure I've read it yet.

High Five by Janet Evanovich

    I love the Stephanie Plum series! It is such a page turner. I want to be friends with Stephanie because she is hilarious and witty also she has a hot crowd following her. I would totally love to friends or working with Joe Morelli or Ranger. Every book I read just gets better and better. In High Five Stephanie's uncle Fred goes missing and the family ask her to find him but of course it's not that easy. She ends up uncovering a crime she didn't see coming. Plus at the end of the book her hook up gets hotter. The ending was such a cliffhanger about her and hookup but doesn't say who it so. I need to run to library and get the next book so I can find out! I CAN NOT WAIT!! Seriously if you have never read any of these books pick one up. They are pretty cheap to buy I think about $7 or $8 but if you don't want to buy one then check it out of your local library I don't think you'll regret it. I am so glad this series is so long so it never has to end because I don't want it to!

PS- Have you ever heard of the Hidden Gem series or read any of it? A friend recommended it to me and I am curious about whether it is good or not. I believe it is a young adults series.
