A Great Read for Guys Too

laying on the nightstand was a dog eared copy of "Girl Anatomy" by Rebecca Bloom that my girlfriend left behind one day - with an initial fear of emasculation put aside - i was curious of the chick lit genre and began to read - - to my surprise i never put it down and have since become a devoted fan of anything Rebecca Bloom writes - - with her latest novel "Tangled up in Daydreams" - i identified with the main character Molly and her search for independence and personal growth told through tales chalk full of description and characters that felt honest and familiar - - making this a truly cathartic read for myself - - - i anxiously await book number three...

Touching, stylish and fun... this book has it all!!!!

I loved Tangled Up in Daydreams and strongly recommend this book to anyone who craves a little girl power... or a break from their own troubles. It is an intensely moving story about a woman trying to come to terms with the reality that her journal writing, rock star boyfriend is not the flawless hero she had fantasized about as a little girl. The story is told primarily from the perspective of the main character Molly, who is an LA hipster with a creative flare and a wonderful ability to reflect on both her blessings and her burdens. The crisp descriptions of Los Angeles and Sun Valley, Idaho add a unique flare and capture the moment superbly.

great follow-up novel

After having discovered Rebecca Bloom's witty writing in her first novel, "Girl Anatomy," I was delighted and eager to read more of her work. Bloom's "Tangled Up in Daydreams" speaks to women of all ages as it address very real issues of love, work, disappointment, family, faith and the search for personal peace. In following a young woman's journey, I laud the well-crafted tale of Molly's struggle to seek answers. This well written novel realistically taps into Molly's journey and relationships as she oscillates between feelings of loneliness to reassurance in the support, and ultimately personal pride in finding her way. I highly recommend this novel. It is a tale that is entertaining, inquisitive and enjoyable. Check it out!

A suspenseful and romantic read

After picking up a copy of Bloom's first book, GIRL ANATOMY, i was expecting another hilarious tale of the trials and tribulations of single hood, but instead, Bloom put out a touching story all about the imperfect nature of love. I loved this book. The characters reminded me of my friends and myself, always searching for that perfect match but forgetting that even perfect's got its own set of problems. The dialog is snappy, sassy, and real, and the characters are funny and true. I had to keep reading because i felt so invested in the book!I also loved getting a peek into the LA scene. Most chick lit books hit NYC and show us that in all its glory so it was nice to get a insider perspective on the other coast. Can't wait to read more of Bloom's books.
