What comes around... Photographer Sadie Price is known for her thick skin and infallible instincts. A lofty education has made her skilled in her craft, and a fear of poverty -- and love for Jimmy Choo -- has made her one of the East Coast's most savvy paparazzi. She keeps her exhilarating but sometimes hectic life manageable by staying on the right side of the razor-thin line between celebrity photographers and the stalkerazzi. But all that changes when Sadie locks horns with one of Hollywood's hottest bachelors. ...goes around. Something about Ethan Wyatt's charisma and startling good looks throws Sadie off her game. Something about Sadie's dogged determination -- and a very compromising picture she snaps -- throws Ethan off his. Hatching a scheme befitting the silver screen that made him famous, Ethan sets out to give Sadie a taste of her own medicine. And when her life almost instantly becomes as frenzied as those of the "It Girls" she follows, Sadie starts to see her career, her love life, and Ethan Wyatt in ways she never had before....
As an aspiring chic lit writer, it is a pleasure to discover different writting styles. Libby Street is very good at the pace of the story and very original. Simply but I like this book alot.
Nothing "Accidental" About It

This book was a true page turner! The story is funny, quirky and made me laugh out loud too many times to count. Chick Lit at it's best.

Pleasurable read for a summer's day! Captivating pace, each page makes you want to get to the next charming encounter between the characters. I loved this book soooo much - 'ya gotta check it out for yourself.
A wry and pleasing companion.

This is a real page turner - in the "I can't put it down/can't wait to get back to it" sense. Libby Street has created believable characters that, surprisingly, I came to care about quite a bit. There is humor galore in this "screwball comedy" of a book, but a substantial level of reality intrudes into the lives of these interesting, semi-neurotic characters and some hard truths are presented for a reader's consideration - hard truths about American pop culture, about life in New York (or any other BIG American) City, and about relationships (of all sorts, shapes and sizes). An enjoyable read, with quite a bit more substance that might be expected. A request for Libby Street: maybe in another book we could learn more about Luke, Brooke and (maybe even) Todd?
Accidentally FABULOUS!!! (Maybe It Wasn't An Accident)

As a big fan of Libby Street's first book, "Happiness Sold Separately", I waited with baited breath for "Accidental It Girl." It was, without question, well worth the wait! Street's sophomore effort is, dare I say, better than the first book. The writing team that comprises Libby Street continues with the fresh, witty & realistic dialogue that originally caught my attention. Living in Manhattan, I continue to be impressed with how well Street captures the city and highlights it as one of the main characters. The "real" characters are believable as well, and I again found myself laughing out loud (and groaning - hopefully to myself) at their trials and tribulations. Sadie Price is Everygirl - full of self-doubt and confidence, intellect and ditzinesss, good humor and bit of bitchiness. Bravo, Libby! I now resume holding my breath until your next new release......
