Reading Pretty Little Mistakes is like reading a series of short stories. Unfortunately, I found it to be more of a novelty than a novel. I read through 5 or 6 storylines before I got bored. Since I died rather horribly each time (twice in a plane crash!), I thought it was a bit depressing. I think she should have mixed a few more happy endings in, and maybe made some of the stories go on longer. I read it looking for the nostalgia of the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books I read as a kid, but it didn’t do it for me. Back onto PaperbackSwap it goes!
Austen, Hemingway
Rushdie, Poe
When it comes to reading
You’re a pro!
Cute! Thanks!
You know, I haven’t touched my kindle yet, I think I’m saving it for late night reading. It’ll be hard to figure out how many pages I’ve read on it, I hadn’t thought of that before! Love your site, happy readings!

What I’m doing to estimate for the Kindle is to look up the page count of the book on Amazon and then using the percentage marker on the Kindle to estimate. Who knows how accurate it is!
Pretty Little Mistakes sounds like a book I should ignore. I would love to find a choose-your-adventure book for adults. You’re on a roll!

I know, I had such high hopes for it. Maybe someday I’ll find a good one.
I thought Pretty Little Mistakes was a fun book but you definitely have to take it in the spirit in which it’s written. It’s like a choose-your-own-adventure for chicklit readers. 🙂
