Trading Up (Abridged): A Novel Audiobook

" Completely mindless reading, which is exactly what I have been looking for. Cute story, but not enough character and plot development for such a long book. "

" A fun read that didnt require many brain cells. What else can I say? Its Candace Bushnell! "

" I have to say this was one of the worst books I've ever read. Horrible, horrible. I should have counted how many times they said blow job cause it seemed all they she did was give them or talk about them. It was mind numbingly painful to get through but for some reason I felt the need to finish the book. If you've started the book and are hoping it gets better...don't waste your time..stop reading now!!! "

" I couldn't relate to the main character. In fact, I never really even liked her. She was superficial and self absorbed. The entire book, I just wanted her to change and realize her faults. Instead, the book ends and she succeeds. I didn't want that for her. "

" To tell the truth, I got so bored, I never even finished this one. "

" I found Janie, the main charecter, totally unlikeable! Overall...a gossipy chick lit read. I would only reccomend if you were really bored on the beach somewhere. "

" I never finished this book...had a hard time staying interested in it. "

" So shallow it was hard to read without getting sick "

" trying to finish this book for the past 3 months. plot is so blah! author's attempt at humor is pathetic. think am going to pass on this one... "

" This book was terrible. I read it last summer and could not even bring myself to finish the last 100 pages because it was so bad. "

" It was OK. Took me a long time to get through. "

" Mindless beach read that I am embarrassed for reading. I found it at a tag sale in LBI for 10 cents. What can I say. "

" A little sexier than what I usually read (I had to cover pages on the train hahaha) but a pretty good one. I would like to read more of of Bushnell's stuff. "

" I love the series Sex and the City, but I do not enjoy Candance Bushnell's books. Her characters never improve themselves. You don't like them in the beginning and you still don't like them at the end. "

" probably the worst book ever written. and i mean it. "

" This was a good book. The main character, Janey is too shallow though, which made some of the scenes difficult to read, because I could not imagine another human being acting that way. Yet I felt sorry for her on some occasions. The end was really quick. "

" It was fun - but I can't even remember what it was about now. Only recommend for beach reading. "

" It was better than Sex and the City, but it was shallow and pretentious. It's a good vacation book to read if you don't want to get deep. "

" Not bad writing for chick lit, even though the main character doesn't have any arc whatsoever and there are only 2 characters who ren't completely cynical and selfish. "

" I could not even finish this book. It's about shallow women doing disgusting things. Don't waste your time. "

" I needed a dumb book and got it. Hopefully now I will pick up the stack of better selections given to me as Christmas gifts LY. "

" I gave up on the first chapter really bad book made me doubt myself reading all together till I picked up another book. shame as enjoyed sex and the city... "

" Good trashy beach read. Sex and the City meets Devil Wears Prada. "

" 100 and some pages into this and it's hard to keep going... the main character is so shallow that it makes me dislike her. I wanted to read this because I love sex in the city, but so far i'm not impressed. "

" From my old, paper Book Log: "Lame! None of the characters are likeable." "

" I will blame an atrociously boring summer as my excuse as to why I read this book- I had also just finished my MA thesis on James Joyce and DID NOT want to think...instead of a frothy delight, I slogged through some of the vapid self-indulgence that is this mess of a novel. For shame. "

" This was a great chick lit book. I think that Candace Bushnell is a lot like Jackie Collins with the style of writing. "

" This book was a bit dissapointing "

" I know a lot of people didn't like the book but I actually really liked it. I thought it was entertaining and I can easily picture people acting like the characters. "

" VERY slow start took me what seemed like an eternity to finish it... "

" I liked it. It's about snotty, beautiful Janey Wilcox who basically is with men for their money. If you like the OC Housewives you'll like this book. "

" I read this a while ago and while it took me a few tries to get into it, once I read it all the way through, I actually liked it. I don't remember much more than that... "

" I really only liked one character and he was thrown to the trash by Janey Wilcox who was climbing the social ladder. "

" I'm embarrassed by how much I enjoyed this book. It's really fun to read. "

" Character was selfish and arrogant. I thought we were getting some where when we went into her past and saw that she was a prostitute, but I guess I was wrong. I hated this book and hated the main character. I am glad I don't know anyone like her. Makes me wonder about our world though... "

" Better then Sex and the City, but thats not saying a lot! "

" this book is HORRIBLE!!!and the fact that this is actually Buhsnell's first book that I wrote was making me worried. do her other books suck this bad as well??? "

" I found the character to be an enigma. I couldn't figure out whether I should hate her completely or sympathize with her. My first Candace Bushnell read and I must say that it did hold some surprises. Great read! "

" UGH!!! I read this b/c Candace Bushnell was supposed to be a decent writer. I can't believe I even finished this book. I thought it just started off slow and kept waiting for it to get better but it didn't. "

" This was a great chick lit book. I think that Candace Bushnell is a lot like Jackie Collins with the style of writing. "

" Not that this book wasn't well written, I just didn't like the content. "
