Commentary In Favor Of Books The Wrong Girl
Lily is a producer on a successful cooking segment for a daily morning show. The new chef has just arrived on set and he is drop dead gorgeous. And despite everything – the sabbatical that Lily and her flatmate Simone are taking from men, the fact that Jack is a work colleague – Lily falls head over heels for him. And while Lily battles her feelings, her flatmate Simone breaks their pact and starts dating some guy from her wholefoods shop. That guy turns out to be Jack. Up close, Lily bravely watches on as romance blossoms between Simone and Jack. Or does it? They don't seem to have much in common, apart from their striking good looks. And Lily and Jack just seem to get each other. Is that the same thing as falling in love? And could she ever dream of betraying a friendship? Lily has to make some difficult decisions about work and home, and realises that if she doesn't take life by the scruff of the neck, she is the one who'll be picked up, shaken and dumped.Be Specific About Books Conducive To The Wrong Girl

I was curious to read this after reading that it had been optioned for a television series on Network 10. I don't often read chick lit of this variety and while it was a breezy read it has to be a solid 2.5 as a rating because it sat dead in the middle of being fun and "meh" for lack of a better word. There's nothing wrong with frothy fiction like this but if the characters had a bit more spunk it would have livened up the well-trod plot a notch for me.Um I think I like chick lit now. I LOVE Zoe Foster (Blake) and this book left me giggling on the train.OMG also 600% excited for the TV adaption!
Zoe Fosters fourth novel, The Wrong Girl recently caught my attention when an Australian television network Ten, adapted it into a television series. I have had The Wrong Girl sitting on my bookshelves since it was released in 2014. As I dislike watching television or film productions of a book I havent read yet, I thought now was the perfect opportunity to dust this book off my shelves.The Wrong Girl is the quintessential chick-lit novel, with a distinct Australian flavour. It takes the reader
This took a long time to finish as I couldn't stand the vapidity of most of the characters. Having also watched the tv show, I can say that they made great changes, creating characters (out with the boring, a times painful, ones in the novel, in with more interesting nuanced ones) that were relatable. I would have thrown this book out, but was determined to finish, and really had to skim read to do so. Thank god, I've finished and can read something else. I hope these characters aren't based on
Zoe Foster's latest book, The Wrong Girl, may possibly be her best yet. Sure, I've only read one of her other books, but The Wrong Girl was definitely better than The Younger Man. Same sort of concept, light and fluff chick lit, but with a lot more soul. Which is a lot more than I could about other girly books I've read recently.Plus, I have to be a little bit biased. Not only is Zoe Foster Australian, but she's married to (and expecting a baby with) the delightfully funny Hamish Blake. So I
This was an easy read, and I think my younger self would have liked this book a lot more than my present self. I found the characters to be fairly stereotypical, and it seemed like the author was trying too hard to make the main character, Lily, seem relatable, and when she attempted to add any dimensions to her characters it felt forced.
I'm in a reading-mood again finally! I felt like I knew Lily personally because I recognized a lot of her behaviour in myself and my friends. We all did those same stupid things when we were in the midst of an argument, a tentative relationship, a job where it just wasn't happening how we planned. I really enjoyed it.
