Title: Up and Down and All Around...2.5 Stars
Product review: The Botox Diaries sets out to be chick lit for the mature women and ends up reading like you're a mouse in a maze and just wish you could find the cheese. I SO wanted to love this book but ended up just thinking it was ok. The storyline jumped around too much for my taste. I like sarcasm and dry wit as much as the next person but the authors laid it on too thick, it was like reading a nonstop Seinfeld episode. You also have to really pay attention to the qotation marks because you don't know if Jess is speaking to someone or just having the sarcastic conversations in her head.After all that said there are some genuinely good and funny parts in the book but most of it is forced. The authors prove that's two heads aren't always better than one. If this book would have toned down on all the sarcasm and kept a steady story line it could have been great. I say borrow this book from the library and save your money.
