Reviews

A real-life Bridget Jones's Diary meets Sex and the City...an insider's look at what life is really like in the big city. Harrison doesn't shy away from the funny - but sometimes sad - truths -- Candace Bushnell, author of Sex and the City
This is almost better than Bridget Jones' Diary... She's gutsier and funnier than Bridget but just as socially and fashionably inept. And she resolves to get to the bottom of why it's so damn difficult to meet a good man in New York, with some truly laugh-out-loud funny twists * Cosmopolitan *
A brilliant read - single women will find it both shocking and hilarious * The Sun *
As hilarious as it is tear jerking. A real insiders' comedy of New York -- Plum Sykes
This Sex and the City/Bridget Jones hybrid will have you gripped as our Brit heroine embarks on a new job and a string of dates in New York City. It's honest and funny - but the best thing is, it's all true * The Times *
