Customer Review #1:
I really really tried to like it...
I am an avid reader of Chick Lit, and have read and enjoyed others by Elizabeth Young, so I felt kind of guilty about not being able to get into this book. I found myself, about halfway through, just skimming the pages. My interest started to falter with the "Murder Mystery Weekend" with which I found it difficult to keep up. After that, I just couldnt get into the characters. Maybe Ill enjoy her next one more...

Dogs are better than men because...
An enjoyable quick read, if a bit disjointed. I only began to learn Izzy and her friends names, when they were all allotted aliases at a weekend murder-mystery party. Pay attention to their names early on, and youll enjoy this witty read.Great fun. Henry truly is a girls best friend.

Another five star read from Liz Young
Young shows again how shes becoming a master at warm, engaging, funny, and sexy stories. With A Girls Best Friend, she manages to balance all of the elements - the story isnt too sweet and sappy, but you definitely feel good after finishing it. Izzy is an estate agent in the London area, shes seeing the lovely Leo. Well, hes lovely except for the fact that she never seems to come first with him. Izzy has a great circle of friends - and through them she meets Nick, a Vet in a corner of Devon. Together, they play an important part in a house party murder mystery game. Simple enough - but after that weekend, Izzys life starts to take a different direction. Naturally, alls well that ends well (for several people and one wonderful dog). In fact, this book features one of the best (if not THE best) "Big Romantic Gestures" Ive read - Nick knows the way to a womans heart is through her dog! Young manages a sharp and often sarcastic wit that never turns bitter or biting, Izzy is self-deprecating without being whiny or psycho. And, unlike many books, the spark between the two main characters rings true. A lovely, lovely book! --
