Lucy Sullivan herself, with their own particular idiosyncrasies and stories. Each character is complete, from the few appearances of a video rental clerk to Ms. I almost turned it down but at the last-minute snatched it because I needed a book for the train.įrom the first page Marian Keyes creates a world and cast of characters that you want to hold and never let go. After sharing this with one of my LitSnit ladies, Erin, she recommended Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married, stating that it was her favorite Keyes’ book. I had just finished Keyes’ Sushi for Beginners and, while it mildly entertained me, it left me…well, for lack of a better word, bored. I was convinced I knew chick-lit inside and out. I can preach to you about how I love the way Megan Crane speaks to women my age, the way Jennifer Crusie speaks to women my size, the way Jill Mansell makes me dream of the UK and all it has to offer. I can take pictures of my shelves showing rows and rows of chick-lit novels. I can rattle of a list of writers from both the US and the UK. I can’t think of any other word to use other than delicious.īefore this book, I would have declared myself a hardcore chick-lit fan.
