LBD Week: Chick Lit Classic - Step On It, Cupid
December 9th, 2010 by Chloe![]()
Chick Lit Classics is a new feature on Chick Lit Reviews where we highlight the books we feel are classics of the chick lit genre. Feel free to discuss our choices in the comments section!
As we’re currently in the middle of our Little Black Dress, we wanted to carry it through to our regular weekly features as well, so for this week’s Chick Lit Classic, I’ve picked a 2006 LBD release by Lorelei Mathias, Step On It, Cupid. It was actually one of my first ever LBD reads myself, and definitely sticks in my head because I’ve actually kept my copy on my bookshelf which says a lot considering how many books I read! It’s a fun read about the character Amelie who seems to be the last of the singletons amongst her friends, and she thinks it might be time to change that. It’s a fun, sweet read that I really loved and certainly is a perfect LBD book in my opinion, and if you haven’t yet read it, I certainly recommend you do!
“Amelie’s life is arranged just how she likes it. Brilliant job, great social life, and on-off love-life. So it’s a shock when she realises one day that everyone she knows seem to be happily coupled up – getting married even. Is it time she thought about settling down?
Assigned an awful project in work – writing the ad campaign for Britain’s biggest speed-dating company – she is forced against her will into plenty of market research. And with her best mate Duncan, her annoying boss Joshua and her ex-boyfriend Jack all causing havoc in her life, maybe a speed-dating romance could be her salvation…”
