Additional Chasing Harry Winston: A Novel Information

For Tali, good Tali, whose boyfriend of five years just left her for a personal trainer, it will be to find romance -- or a fling -- in every foreign country she visits (and given her job as a secret shopper for high-end resorts, she goes to a lot of foreign countries). For Schuyler, a book editor, her goal is to get on the other side of the typewriter and write her own book -- much to the dismay of her boyfriend, who is a Very Public Figure. And for commitment-phobic, Daddy's little rich-girl, Kim (she can't hold a job, or a boyfriend, unless he's married and therefore erratic and unattainable) , her goal is to have an engagement ring and a house in Scarsdale.

Each woman starts the first day of the year of reckoning with the best of intentions -- which is exactly why the pact goes immediately, and exceptionally, awry.

Filled with the delicious insider details (of a celebrity-level (or celebrity-wannabe) lifestyle), Chasing Harry Winston brings listeners once again into the heart of an elite world, where friendships will be tested to the point of breaking.

Let the games begin.

What Customers Say About Chasing Harry Winston: A Novel:

Ridiculously boring, silly, and lacking depth. Just say no to this disappointing follow-up to Devil.

It's excellent story telling with relatable characters. I really enjoyed both "Devil Wears Prada" and "Chasing Harry Winston." Chasing Harry Winston is a great book and a fun read. This is not supposed to be a serious, mind-altering book. I tend to lean towards classics or mystery books, but this was a light-hearted, engaging story that at times was funny, heart-warming and human. I honestly can't wait for the movie. Lighten up and enjoy the ride. It's great fun.

It's not that the story line wasn't intriguing but did we have to be reminded in every chapter that the three main characters were going through their 30 year old crisis. For her third book, I felt Lauren Weisberger slipped back in her literary talent a bit. I couldn't put the first two down but I kept getting distracted on this one. I never did get invested heavily in the girls and the one character who intrigued me (Jesse) was barely fleshed out. The city of New York naturally is a character all its own and I enjoyed the descriptions and placement of the storylines in and around the city.Wait until you can buy it used.

I am single, in my 30s and live in Manhattan. I think the author was trying to emulate a Sex and the City type of character and ended up creating someone who you could care less about. I was in an airport and needed to pass the time and I ended up buying this and regretted it. They are shallow, selfish and not worth caring about. I still wanted to add mine to the mix.Dont buy, borrow or read this book. I hated this book, and was sorry I bought it. I could not find one redeeming quality for any of these characters. I actually wanted something bad to happen to her.

I ended up skimming after reading halfway through it. The character Adriana is particularly irritating. I felt compelled to write a review, even though once I was on this site, I see there are many others. You will regret the wasted hours.

Sure the women are shallow and the storyline is predictable, but this isn't supposed to be award winning writing, is it. I guess this is what is going for chick-lit these days, and if so, well, I enjoyed the story. There certainly is no depth to the story; just your average story of three 20-somethings who make a pact to change the course of their lives. It read like it could be a movie starring the current Hollywood it-girls. Get it from the library.
