I enjoyed the book, it was witty and entertaining. It made me think a little of Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice, modern P&P light, because this is on par with modern romances, not classic worthy like Jane, but still entertaining. Two sisters in love with two friends, with the cynical sister ending up in love with a wealthy witty man and miscommunications and drama abound,**spoiler** while the more optimistic sister ends up with the man she thought she should be with the whole time. I enjoyed the thoughts of the main characters and the different perspectives. I kind of disliked how all the perspectives flowed together too well. No one with that much drama will view the situation the same as the person next to them, it felt too plotted and one dimensional. I felt the characters insight was a bit too well timed. A bit overly cliched. I don't think that many people in a situation will be that insightful at just the right moment, which made the book feel fake and forced to me. It was also a bit straight forward, From the beginning you get a sense of what will happen, and that is exactly what happens. But it was a free book, and it was entertaining, and the concept was new and intriguing. Worth reading the first time, not worth re-reading.
