Lipstick Jungle is a fun read but i wasn't so thrilled about it. Loved the show much better, LOL. Would love to hear your opinions on it though.

I never watched the show...so far it is off to a kind of slow start, but I am hoping it gets better!

You will probably like it :) It's always better to read the book before watching it though. It's kind of like Sex and the City, just a more mature version.

See, now if people judged you by the cover of the book you were reading they might think you had loose morals

which is another reason why books should not have covers! LOL Just a title and a summary is all we really need!

I guess a naked picture of death wouldn't help either.

Makes it easier for Mare to mentally ad herself into romance novel style mental banners.
