Review title: pedestrian and predictable
Product review: The amazing success of "Bridget Jones' Diary" has spawned a sub-genre of popular literature: books where anxious 20- or 30-something heroines complain about their lives and are desperate to catch husbands. "See Jane Date" is another book along those lines. Same jealously of someone else's marriage, same insecurity, same frantic dating. Blah, blah, blah. The ending of this book was predictable from the first chapter.Having said that, if the writing was good, I could have forgiven a recycled plot. Sadly, it was not. None of the characters are particularly likable -- frankly they are all charicatures. Dialogue is stilted. And the writing just isn't good. Save your money for something better.
