Rating: 3 1/2 STARS

Review: Girlfriend Material was definitely a very enjoyable book. It's a total summer, beach read. It was light and fun but, it still pulled you in. Some of the characters are very complex like Kate, Sarah, and Adam. While others are just there to fill in some of the empty spaces. I do like the way that Melissa Kantor writes though. She makes things fun and exciting. I also really liked how Kate compared herself to Lady Brett Ashley, I thought that it was different. I think that how she compared situations and things in her life to parts in The Sun Also Rises, added something to Kate's relationship with Adam. Girlfriend Material is a great summer read. I really enjoyed reading it, but I think my favorite part had to be the characters. I loved all of them. Oh, and the ending for Girlfriend Material is something that you really won't expect. But, you'll love it.
