Book Description

Publication Date: April 15 2005 | Series: MIRA
MB is for Masters in Business

Which is what Kimmy, Russ, Jamie, and Layla are supposed to be studying for at the University of Connecticut. Jamie at least has serious academic intent. Well, until the first day of preterm when he develops a not-so-secret crush.

MB is for Marriage Bait

Layla's goal is perfection: perfect marks, perfect six-figure salary, perfect (I.e. rich, gorgeous, sexy) New York banker husband. . .candidate already identified as Bradley Green. The trouble is, seducing him could get her expelled.

MB is for Multiple Bed-hopping

Definitely Kimmy's favorite homework--starting with Jamie but moving swiftly on to Russ, until she discovers the small matter of his girlfriend back home. Hopefully Business Studies includes a minor in boyfriend embezzlement--a skill Kimmy will need if she's to keep hold of Russ.

MB is for Misbehaving Boyfriend

Russ didn't intend to be unfaithful--to either girlfriend! He never thought he'd find one woman who wanted him, let alone two. But since he can't even pick a major, how can he choose one true soul mate?

Product Description

From Booklist

Mlynowski, author of Fishbowl (2002) and As Seen on TV [BKL S 15 03], returns with another delightful tale about an unlikely group of friends. Kimmy, Jamie, Layla, and Russ meet in business school at the University of Connecticut. Kimmy hooks up with Jamie before classes even start and regrets the move almost instantly, especially when he begins writing her love poems in the co-ed bathroom. It's handsome Russ who catches Kimmy's eye, but Russ has a girlfriend back at home in Canada. Not that this means he's able to keep away from flirtatious Kimmy. Layla is more focused on school than the other three combined, and she's already picked out her future boyfriend from the crop of next year's applicants. The shifts in the group's loyalties and friendships--Kimmy and Layla form an unlikely but deep friendship, while Jamie begins to realize that his affections for Kimmy are being replaced by much deeper feelings for another--keep Mlynowski's fourth novel fresh and riveting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Business School... April 26 2005
By Melissa
Format:Paperback
After having read Fishbowl I was looking forward to finding another book by this author. I read the first chapters while sitting in a bookstore waiting for my pictures to be developed... I was so captivated by the characters and the situations that I returned a few days later to buy it.

Sarah sheds light on various people and situation that you will run into at business school: from the ones who don't know why they are truly there to the serious students. I do wish that business school could be more a social event like this book.

Warning: this book will be read within a few sittings because it is so well written and witty. I truly look forward to reading more of her books in the near future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner from Mrs. Mlynowski..... Sep 29 2004
By Chick-lit fan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you enjoyed Sarah Mlynowski's other books, or chick-lit in general, go grab this one. It's hilarious, and as she did in Fishbowl, the author seamlessly goes from one character's point of view to another. I especially appreciated this as a business school student- sometimes it was as if she were talking about my own school!

The story centers on four characters living in the same co-ed dorm, attending a prestigious (fictional) business school. We have Jaime, a pudgy, girl-crazy but very nice guy, Layla, a beautiful, ultra-smart and super-motivated Manhattanite, Russ, a Canadian guy torn between his girl back home and finding something new, and Kimmy, a pretty Jewish girl who falls hard for Russ and is not sure what she wants out of school- other than a boyfriend.

The story follow through the first year, following crushes, relationships, and some pretty big deceptions. But the characters are all likeable and flawed, which is something that has made Mlynowski's books so good in the past. This is better than average chick-lit, not just a single-girl-in-the-city story, but a story of four people and the deep bonds they form while living in a co-ed down (nicknamed "The Zoo"). If you like the funny, wittier writers in the chick-lit genre, this is right up your alley. Highly recommended!
