(Some probable spoilers.) For the most part, I really enjoyed this book.  It was well written, articulate and amusing.  There were only a few details that really bothered me.  Elise seemed to have a double standard about intimacy-she won't just jump into bed with Taylor, but after two dates, she is ready for Nathan.  There is one scene where Nathan finds Elise in the tub, later, it turns out he doesn't have a key-how did he get in? (Maybe this is nitpicking, but it stopped the flow of the story for me.)  I also agree with some of the other reviewers about the abrupt ending of the relationship with Nathan and Elise ("I love him to bits") that just well, ends.  They have one argument ever, and that's it. Her job ends pretty much the same way.  On the bright side, the emails were funny and sexy (they reminded me a bit of Bridget Jones) and the epilogue was funny. (Does anyone really not figure out who Mr. X is right off the bat?) It was amusing to see the men compared to cakes. I would recommend it, although parts of it did tend to be a bit introspective and they made you think.  (Just in case you were looking for some fluffy reading.)
