Title: Commercial venture, not literature
Product review: Melissa is bright young woman. She saw the market demand, she had the connections, she wanted some cash. She wrote a contrived, self vaunting portrait of the reflective, funny single NY woman many female readers love to identify with by recycling a few ancient short stories written on dateless Saturday nights and spoofing The Rules. She did it skilfully enough with the intelligent spirit yet inner emptyness of an advertising copywriter and hoped for the best. And hit paydirt. A pleasant enough read - we all eat doughnuts sometimes - but literature?
