Good Read

I'm not much for chick lit, usually, but I came across this book in my library and gave it a chance. I'm glad I did! This was much better than the usual chick lit books--smarter. This one deserves to be better known.

Saccharine Sweet, Delightful Entertainment

It took me a couple of chapters to get into this book, but once I did, the pages just kept on turning. Courtney Litz's "Live From New York, It's Lena Sharpe" is pleasurable in its simplicity. Lena reminded me a lot of myself, actually. Always searching for Mr. Wonderful, and in her mind, diving into the long-term relationship with the guy even before plans for a second date are made. And then she meets Colin, an aspiring writer and her newest Mr. Wonderful among a long string of them. Colin is seemingly the answer to all of Lena's wishes. But Lena's best friend, Jake, has other thoughts about this Prince that has suddenly entered her life and swept her off her feet. Litz writes in an airy, fresh voice and ties Lena's romance with Colin, and friendships with Jake, and best girlfriends, Tess and Parker, all effortlessly into one. The reader will follow Lena through romance, close friendship and the ultimate realization when it comes to love. This book has a nice flow and will absolutely keep the reader entertained. Funny, charming, and super-sweet, this book is a winner!

Stick With It

This book was cute. It's predictible yes, and the first chapter didn't really capture me, but I stuck with Lena through her journey. Lena lives life with her head in the clouds. Every suitor is the potential love of her life, so much so that she ends up with a false idea of who people in her life are. However, like those who have come before her Lena's journey is not just for guy, but a search for herself, which is the saving grace of this book. The characters are interesting. Jake, Tess, Parker are all great characters. I'll call this a winner in the Chick Lit Race

Fun and Frolic for the Pretty People in New York

If you want to know what it's like to be young and pretty and stylish in New York, read this book. Courtney Litz sure has a feel for life in the Big City (my hometown). Her book feels genuine; it's filled with places I've been and characters that read almost like non-fiction. She also knows every fashion designer worn by every hip, young, sexy thing in town. This is a fun book aimed right at girls and women who dream of days and nights in New York filled with dates, parties, bars, restaurants, nightclubs, and great clothes. It's also refreshingly sex-free, so it's appropriate for teens.

Fun Read!

This is a great book. Any single woman in her 20s can understand Lena. You will laugh at her and yourself all at the same time. We have all had our Lena moments. Throughly enjoyable. I especially recommend it for anyone who has lived in NY, would like to live in NY or just loves the city. It is the real Sex and the City. Hope Courtney Litz writes more books!!
