Romance: Completely romantic but not in the gushy girly "I will give my life for you" manner. It's a modern funny romance that will make you think aaawww with the requisite amount of romantic tension, chase, mystery and sweet factor. Nothing cringe worthy, a teeny tiny bit fairytale like (the meet cute coincidence) but in a good way. Starts off with Sydney penning a note to a columnist/ journalist after taking exception to an article he has written. There ensues a fair bit of banter between the two. The Journalist tries to engage Sydney in a more personal manner but she evades him. However, soon enough she meets a hot dude randomly in a bar.... Thus a interesting situation occurs. =========================================== =========================================== Characters: Heroine: Sydney: female protagonist is an upbeat, trendy, intelligent, witty mid-20s career girl living in LA. Love the dialogue. Hero: tall, dark handsome hottie, 30ish career dude. He's witty, cool and manly without being a Neanderthal. There is a slight twist (well it's obvious what the twist is - but in a good way- also extremely romantic). Supporting characters - love the supporting characters particularly the neighbour's little boy. ================================================= ================================================= Audience: this is for intelligent, independent career women who want to read a sharp witty but "light" romcom that doesn't involve a fluffy bimbo shopping mad fashion obsessed female, or a poor PA waiting for her boss to fall in love with her. Modern chick lit seriously needs a "shake up" to reflect today's career-wise, educated, street-smart women who want more than to fall in love! This book sure does deliver that with non-nauseating results. However, if you want ultra fluffy chick lit than pass this by. ========================================== Synopsis: When Sydney is asked to work up an advertising pitch to sell the Catholic Church to the unwashed masses, she's distinctly uncomfortable. After all, she's agnostic herself and, despite assistance from easy-on-the-eye-but-obviously-celibate Father Giuliani, she just can't stop blaspheming. But, work apart, things are lathering up nicely for our heroine when the chance throw of a pen brings gorgeous Jake into the frame. And then it's a downhill path to fist-date sex, polite kidnap and a spot of breaking and entering. Selling your soul and scrubbing it whiter than white has surely never been so easy...

"At the age of eight, Scout Finch is an entrenched free-thinker. She can accept her father's warning that it is a sin to kill a mockingbird, because mockingbirds harm no one and give great pleasure. The benefits said to be gained from going to school and keeping her temper elude her. The place of this enchanting, intensely moving story is Maycomb, Alabama. The time is the Depression, but Scout and her brother, Jem, are seldom depressed. They have appalling gifts for entertaining themselves—appalling, that is, to almost everyone except their wise lawyer father, Atticus. Atticus is a man of unfaltering good will and humor, and partly because of this, the children become involved in some disturbing adult mysteries: fascinating Boo Radley, who never leaves his house; the terrible temper of Mrs. Dubose down the street; the fine distinctions that make the Finch family "quality"; the forces that cause the people of Maycomb to show compassion in one crisis and unreasoning cruelty in another. Also because Atticus is what he is, and because he lives where he does, he and his children are plunged into a conflict that indelibly marks their lives—and gives Scout some basis for thinking she knows just about as much about the world as she needs to." I read this in early high school (freshman year I think) and remembered liking the story then. Half a lifetime later I couldn't remember the plot so listened to it as an audiobook. I fell in love all over again!
