Publisher's Summary:

There are a lot of things worse than being Slightly Engagedbeing entirely broke, completely alone and wholly perplexed.

It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect - well, okay, almost perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're "living in sin," and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.

But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret - he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now. Okay, any week nowAny month now?

It's great to follow a character in her books

It's great to follow a character in her books. But she seemed desperate to BF engaged ... That's all

Fun series of books to read-I pictured her looking like ...

Fun series of books to read-I pictured her looking like Lady Gaga when she had her dark hair, living in NYC-

Slightly Boring ....

I picked this book up awhile ago, saving it for those moments in life when I would need a chick lit to tide me through whatever crisis there is, whether it be flu or colds or those moments when kids, hubby, dog and life just gets to be too much. I picked it up this weekend when the entire family got stricken with the flu.

Does this main character do anything else other than whining about how her sweetheart never proposed to her? Apparently not because for the entire 323 pages of this book that is all she did. She was obsessed with getting that dang ring on her finger, no matter what. It starts off with a wedding that she and her beloved Jack went to a wedding and Jack made the comment that he wasn't a fan of weddings. That comment set Tracey off in a panic thinking that he's never going to marry her. Then his mom tells her that he got the diamond off of her engagement ring and if he had proposed yet. So that sets Tracey off on another panic attack ... and on and on.

I'll save you the trouble ... yes, they do get engaged, but after two weddings, a botched weekend trip, after the holidays and in the least romantic way. By the time I finished this book, I must either be on the mend or just sick and tired of heroines moping about not getting engaged ... I was excited that she's engaged and now I can dump the book at the library annual bookfair.

My advice ... don't buy it. Borrow it or better yet, find some other books in the series that are much better written and more fun than a woman who has it all whining about how she hates her life and it would only be perfect if Jack, her knight in slightly dented armor would just hurry up and propose. As for me, I cannot believe I finished this book. I must have been really delirious with the flu.

Not this time

I am a big fan of this series.

Not this time. Basically, this book is all about how our main character wants to get engaged to her- now - long term boyfriend.
