Best friends since college Leigh, Adriana, and Emmy are all immersed in busy, fabulous New York City lives that nonetheless afford them plenty of time to sit around watching Grey's Anatomy and moan to each other about their problems, chief among them the horrifying fact that they are all on the cusp of 30. Leigh, a hard-driving editor at a publishing house, fears she doesn't actually love her sports-commentator boyfriend. Her thoughts on his kissing technique: ''His tongue probed too voraciously; his lips always seemed either rigid or fleshy.'' Nonetheless, because he meets every single criterion on her ''checklist,'' she accepts his marriage proposal. Mistake? Hmm. Adriana too is angling for a man before the incipient crow's-feet go on a rampage. A flamboyant Brazilian beauty, she spends her days gossiping with her gay hairdresser and her nights seducing any boy who catches her eye, making sure to dash away as soon as the sex is over in order to preserve her ''mystery.'' Also on the loose is prim Emmy, who recently lost her boyfriend to a nubile bimbo whose favorite book, as listed on her MySpace page, is The South Beach Diet.
The plot revolves unsteadily around an absurd pact between Adriana and Emmy: Adriana vows to find a steady squeeze and remain monogamous for a year, while Emmy will take a ''Tour de Whore,'' sleeping with as many men as she can while traveling the world. It's a gimmicky setup, but it gives Weisberger a structure — one that she promptly, foolishly ignores. The story lurches off in random directions: Emmy's sister becomes pregnant, the gals vacation in Curaçao, Leigh goes home for a tense dinner with her folks in Greenwich. The novel would be unreadable but for the briskly outrageous Adriana. Her sublime and outspoken confidence in her native Brazilian smarts about men borders on self-parody. Meticulous about her sexual rules, her waxing habits, and her weight, this witty young woman may be unapologetically shallow, but she has zero tolerance for what this book is full of: flab.

就當又一版的sex and the city讀吧. 有一個不錯的開頭, 中間也算突齣瞭三位女主人公通過自破自立達到瞭更多的自我探索和自我成長, 但是結尾卻有些好萊塢一般影片所有的造作. 沒事乾的時候可以看看的說 .
評分Chasing Harry Winston 讀後感 By Xuyehua 果然寫完一本暢銷書之後就文思枯竭,之後隻能做重復性轉述工作的作者是需要在他/她之後的所有書封麵印上唯一那本暢銷書書名的。且不說當初去看The Devil Wears Prada完全是因為梅姨,這種brand name-dropping行為三番五次齣現在書名上...

評分記得我住在蘋果社區的時候,那邊樓下有個很大的綠化園地,很大很多很繁茂的各色植物。社區裡很多人傢養小動物,狗最多,也有兔子啥的,不用說,CBD下麵最大的一片綠地栽滿各式植物,必然是小動物們的天堂,當然也就會引來很多流浪狗。儘管社區是封閉式的,閒雜人等斷然無法入內...

Harry Winston就值10顆星!!!
評分讀瞭將近一半,就感覺很慶幸我最愛的女人是我媽。 膩膩歪歪啊……話說人做事要有始有終,真是有點兒好奇什麼時候纔能讀完這本書瞭,所有準備翻開的男同學們,在後悔之前趕快收手。
評分有點點拖遝!
