Advantages: Such a true to life read, it will make you laugh and cry. A brilliant read. Disadvantages: It had to end!
apart.
I found this book so true to life right until the very end. I read this book in only a matter of days, it's one of those books you think about during the day and simply can't wait to get back into. Despite having finished the book I'm still thinking about Dexter and Emma and that's really got to say something about the quality of this book.
This book made me laugh and actually cry, the only book to make me cry since The Time Traveler's Wife which I found quite amusing as a quote from Tony Parsons on the back of this book reads, 'the best weird love story since The Time Traveler's Wife,' and it really is! I had been looking for another book to draw me in the way that did, and I found it with this book.
This book is not one to be missed, buy it or borrow it, I am certain that the thoughts of Dex and Em won't leave your mind for days ...
Advantages: Reasonably funny Disadvantages: Rushed ending and quite predictable

As is the case with "One Fine Day ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of One Fine Day (DVD)
Advantages: fun romantic comedy, George Clooney Disadvantages: none
Having had a lovely relaxing day without husband or children around (much as I love them all!), I thought I would treat myself by putting my feet up and watching a nice romantic comedy on DVD. I've got a few on my 'to watch' pile but settled on One Fine Day starring two of my favourites - George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer. It was a very enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours.
The film was made quite a while ago in 1996 and is about two single parents whose lives cross oneday. Michelle Pfeiffer plays Melanie Parker whose son Sammy goes to school with Maggie. Maggie's mum has just got married so she is having to spend the week with her dad Jack Taylor (George Clooney). Everything is a bit chaotic in Jack's house - so much so that he forgets to tell Melanie that he does not need her to take Maggie to school. As a consequence they are ...
