Nice quick read! submitted by Corey Anne Burbank on July 22, 2012, 2:08am It may have taken me a couple of days to get through the first couple of chapters, then the remainder of the book only a night. Slow to start, does not give great Ann Arbor references (like the pretend Vintage to Vavoom shop- maybe there was one here years ago?). However, there were a few travel references that I could totally relate to! Story line had some jumps, and a few pages made me laugh hysterically!

Funny submitted by ssands on July 30, 2016, 3:49pm The main character is a native Ann Arborite, off to visit her new-ish boyfriend in England. The chapter headings include hilarious snippets of her senior thesis on the history of fashion. The characters are relate-able. I don't usually like humor about some person having one bad thing after another happen to them, but while parts of the story are like that, it's nicely balanced and light, and remains enjoyable throughout.
