In case you didn't already know, I'm a total nerd. I also really like chick flick movies. In fact, "The Wedding Date" is one of my favorites. That's why I decided to pick up "Asking for Trouble" since it was the book the movie was based on.

Now, I'd heard reports from those who had read the book first that the movie was absolute piss and the book was fantastic. But, I gotta say, I think it's an issue of whichever came first.

I didn't really care for the book very much. I thought the movie was fantastic and much much better than the book. I thought that the characters were far less developed in the book and that the story was a stretch.

It was a fun read, and it came after some pretty intense books, so it was nice to have a light-hearted read, but not one that is so amazing and fantastic that I think everyone should read it.
