Summary
Feast your eyes on Clarissa.
At twenty-eight (thirty-one), Clarissa Alpert is blessed with a designer wardrobe, a daddy-subsidized apartment, and an A-list speed-dial. Gorgeous and wildly uninhibited, she has amassed a list of exes that amounts to a Who's Who of Hollywood power players. But with her twenty-ninth (thirty-second) birthday looming, she starts to panic. Who on earth could possibly make her an honest woman?

She's reserved a table for two.
Enter Aaron Mason, the latest, hottest new producer in town, who Clarissa decides is the future 'Mr. Alpert.' With the help of her vivacious friends, her aerobicized Latina mother, her ex-con father, and the most divine gay waiter in Hollywood, Clarissa plans the biggest wedding L.A. has seen in years -- all before the couple's first date. Catching Aaron's eye is not the problem. He just seems to have his own agenda. Could Clarissa have finally bitten off more than she can chew?

We are talking Uma people. YES -- Chick flick. Yes - less funny than advertised. Good enough plot, as chick flicks go, but this is all about narrator. From a 3 to a four just because of Uma!

Not exactly a classic literary masterpiece, but a reasonably entertaining, light-hearted chick-flick. Very well-read by Uma Thurman.

I enjoyed this - Uma Thurman did a fantastic job reading it, and the character of Clarissa is fun to hate. I enjoyed the first half more than the second half, but the "twist" part was interesting.

It was a fun book, light reading and ok. I am a little past this age group though so I would say someone younger would enjoy this more. It wasn't funny like I expected. If you are under 30 you will enjoy this.

Very entertaining...definitely "chick lit" material. Uma Thurman was an excellent reader...she kept you interested in the story and represented the characters well.

the equivalent of a 'chick flick' in a book. A real trashy novel. It is what it sayes it is, pure trashy escape. Beautifully read. Loads of fun!

The characters were so bored with life and they bored me.

Don't judge by the beginning, this shapes up to be an entertaining story. Good chick lit.

Ineffective use of foul language made me send this book back after the second CD.

Was worried at first, but turned out to have an unexpected ending. Nothing like I thought it would be.
