Asking for Trouble A Novel Elizabeth Young 9780380818976 Books

okay, so this one i got backwards as i usually read books before seeing the movie!! but having seen the movie on tv, i noted that the movie was based on this book. :) so i looked it up & thoroughly enjoyed it. the movie is "based" on the book being true to it's word, has some major differences from the book. but both are totally enjoyable none-the-less!!! the author has written a wonderfully interlaced story on the old adage "o what a tangled web we weave, when we practice to deceive"!!! a very fun, can't put it down, kind of read!!! :)

Asking for Trouble A Novel Elizabeth Young 9780380818976 Books Reviews

I bought this because I love the movie Wedding Date, the movie taken from this book. Even though the original idea was there, that was about it. I really liked how the story developed and wished there had been more of the book in the movie. I've re-read it; a good sign!
I read this book a few years ago. I found it in a little book shop, and I am glad I did.
Sophy's life certainly became complicated when she invented 'Dominic'. Actually, when I purchased the novel, it was called 'Asking for trouble', and much to my surprise I noticed a movie which seemed to have the same story line."A wedding date" and really, it is hardly anything like the novel.
I loved the book...I wonder how Elizabeth Young felt to have had her story completely re-written??Still, it was fun and a light read.Elizabeth Young has captured me for a reader, and I have read all of her books so far.
Really enjoyed the narration of this book. Was disappointed to see that it had been made into a movie staring the way too thin Debra Messing; Hollywood always manages to screw up the book's description of the main character, don't they? *Sigh* However, the narrator was very good. Love the British speaking voice.
Ask for this one by name! It's a witty romp of a tale revolving around the main character, Sophy. Sophy's a 30year old singleton who makes up a boyfriend to please her mother. Her foibles and wacky antics from that point on will keep you captivated til the last page. One lie leads to another in a domino effect and after a while even Sophy can't keep track of her lies. This tale is a quick, predictable read, but it's enjoyable. It's the perfect 'vacation/going to the beach' book.
I highly enjoyed the snarky narration and the British slang. The only trouble I had was with an occasional abbreviations or cultural references. As in many books, most of the 'mess' in this book could be avoided by communicating honestly, not to mention a boost in the self-confidence department. The main character is teeming with paranoia but, luckily for her, all of her lies don't completely ruin her life.
I saw the this book while viewing the credits to "Wedding Date." I enjoy the movie and so bought the book to see if it was better than the movie. I was not disappointed. Fun book. But beware, it has very little in common with the movie. which usually means that the book came before the movie. It has already found a home in my chick lit library.,
I watched the film that was based on this book. Loved the film and the book was in the credits so had to read the book. As often happens the book was not much like the film but I enjoyed it anyway and had to keep reading till I got to the end.
