Armance CosmoGirl SISter (55)	# Posted: 6 Aug 2008 11:41 I just finished Lauren Weisberger's last novel, "Chasing Harry Winston" in English please! Lol!!! And I really really loved it !!! So true, so funny and so feminine! I don't know if you know her, she's the author who wrote "The devil wears Prada"! So, I would like to read, always in English, "The Devil wears Prada" and her second novel "Everyone worth knowing" but in French, they are written in the 1st person of the singular (I don't know how to say that in English... lol !) and I have a very hard time to read these kind of books because I have the feeling that the narrator imposes me his feelings... You know what I mean ? Since imported books in English are rather expensive here, I would like to be sure that these 2 books are written in the 1st person of the singular... Did anybody read them? Have you other authors in this style to recommend me? thanks in advance... XOXOXO Armance

otherbella Stylin' SIS (232)	# Posted: 7 Aug 2008 15:23 I just finished Everyone Worth Knowing last week. It was really good - better than The Devil Wears Prada, I thought, but it is DEFINITELY written in the first person. It's just the style of the book, told entirely from the lead character's perspective. If you can get past that, it's definitely worth the read! And FNAC was the best place I found in Europe for inexpensive English books.
Armance CosmoGirl SISter (55)	# Posted: 8 Aug 2008 05:57 Ohhh thanks sweetie !!! I think I'm gonna give it a try then, even if it's written in the first person... I so loved "Chasing Harry Winston", I like the very biting and caustic way she writes... I'll tell you what I think of this one... Kisses Armance
