Title: Readable, But Bad
Product review: The Nannie Diaries, The Devil Wears Prada, The Ivy Chronicles... The Botox Diaries joins a long list of chick lit with the theme "aren't rich people crazy and amusing?" The twist is that this novel focuses on a forty something women.Unfortunately, The Botox Diaries brings nothing new to the table. The novel is poorly plotted, completely lacking in cohesion. Did the authors outline the plot beforehand, or did they just make it up as they went along?The main character is not nearly as funny or charming as she's supposed to be, and the main character's best friend is downright unlikeable. Nobody would be best friends with someone who doesn't listen to your problems, is completely self centered, and puts you in compromising positions.The hot French ex-husband of the main character speaks tenth grade French throughout the novel. This is really a minor point, but it bothered me.The ending is insulting to the reader's intelligence.Skip this book and spend your money on something better.
