A lighthearted read! This book is great for one of those relaxing no-thinking days. The characters are refreshing and although at times the storyline is unlikely, it is entertaining to read. If you like rich characters, then you will enjoy this book. As for the comparison of being like the television show "friends" I can see some resemblance, in the sense of absolutely ridiculous situations that the characters seem to put themselves in. Enjoy and I would read another book from this author.

I LOVED this story. Didn't want it to end.
There were a few problems with the writing, which kept it from being 5 stars, but the story and the voice were great.
Romantic Fiction is set in Melbourne, Australia, which is unusual. The blurb on the front compares it to the TV show Friends, but in my opinion, the characters in the show were much more self-absorbed and shallow than these characters.
Just a warning--there's blatant promiscuity in this one.
It's mostly about a group of friends: Lucy, Meg, Chloe, Tom, who's Lucy's on-again-off-again boyfriend, but always best friend, and Percy, who fell head-over-heels with Meg and just sort of stuck around.

This book wasn't the best in bunch but it was enjoyable.
Some parts had me cracking up =), while others left me wanting to put the book down.
It was like that the whole way through. It would get good then it would get boring and I'd stop.
