“Argh. I frigging hate this book. It's stupid. It's overrated. Oprah should not suggest reading, because everyone in the world runs out, buys the book and swears by it.

    “I thought this was an amazing novel and I cannot believe it was written by a man. He understood so much from a females view. Excellent novel.”
