*Review of the Series as a Whole (Not very spoilery though)*I completely adored this series. This is Contemporary Christian fiction at its best. Funny, relatable, inspirational, romantic, and HILARIOUS.Lauren (Laurie, Laur, Nutsy, etc.) Holbrook loves to play matchmaker. She obsesses over getting couples together, and thinks its her special gift. Throughout the series, she puts together a few couples, tries to tear apart others, and overall loves watching all her schemes work out.Hilarious,Honestly, I expected a light, fun read as a break after some heavy stuff Ive been reading lately, but I do have to say that I'm disappointed. First off, this should be filed under Christian Chick Lit and no just regular Chick Lit. While I have ABSOLUTELY no problem with the Christian Religion or Christians at ALL, I think that the book description should have reflected this better, since I am a non-Christian and dont go browsing through the Christian section for a scandalous, fun read. I did not
This was a funny read. The story was engaging, and interesting. I loved the main character Lauren. She was funny, cool and just so sarcastic. I thought the other characters are great as well. I liked the story. Can't wait for the rest of the series. Overall, a fantastic read.
Absolutely LOVED this book. Written by a relatively young author, she has the chick lit genre down-pat. Loosely based on Austen plots, it was laugh-out-loud funny and definitely one to share with and recommend to friends.

HILARIOUS. Did not relate to this one as much as the Paige series. Also, it's a lot less believable, but much funnier!
This is Erynn Mangum's first novel. And she was around 22 or 23 when she wrote it. And the novel is one of the best I've ever read in a chick-lit series. It is funny and poignant, spiritual yet hysterical. I immediately felt closeness with Lauren and all her friends. I felt as if all the characters were well-developed, there was no awkwardness in the writing, and everything flowed. I was so anxious to read the second and third book in this series.
