1.0 out of 5 stars Mourn the trees that died that this book might live, Feb 18 2004
By Roberta (Richmond Hill, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lucy Sullivan Is Getting Married (Paperback)
I chose this title for my review for two reasons. One, after reading half the book, I started to check for some indication that it was printed on recycled paper so there might be some environmental redeeming quality to this book to make up for the unremarkable literary quality. Alas, there was none! Two, the author gave Lucy (in an attempt to make her more sympathetic) a history of depression and describes an occasion where finding a single lost mitten made her cry for the lonely companion mitten. I can only imagine Lucy's mental state in envisioning the forests cleared so this book could be printed.
The basic plot is similar to "Bridget Jones'Diary" but the execution falls very much short. I bought it because it was billed as a book fans of Bridget Jones would like, NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!. I actively disliked each and every character. The male character I disliked least is obviously the one she will end up with, although it doesn't say much for his taste that he likes Lucy. The author apparently never met a cultural stereotype she didn't like or feel the need to exploit. The Irish characters are drunken layabouts. The Scottish character is mean.
The story dragged a great deal and was so boring that I gave up on it. I read several hundred pages but couldn't bring myself to finish it. This was the first novel I had read by this author and, needless to say, will be the last.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best Marian Keyes, Sep 22 2003
By "davidada" (Toronto) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lucy Sullivan Is Getting Married (Paperback)
I have read Sushi for Beginners, and The Last Chance Saloon. Those are better, with more sympathetic characters. This book really dragged in the middle. It picked up for me after I visualized Lucy as a child of an alcoholic and understood the issues that causes. As others have reviewed, you can tell by the first 50 pages who she ends up with. It's too bad that the book drags out this conclusion for so long. Don't start with this as your first Marian Keyes, as it may then be your last.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lucy is Great, Jun 14 2003
By M. E. Newell (Marietta, Georgia, United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Lucy Sullivan is getting married" by Marian Keyes is a great book! Ms. Keyes gives the reader a great plot, characters that reader wants to read more about and most of all she deals with real life and not some fantasy life that is found in many "Chick-Lit" books that you see today. This is a great book for summertime or anytime.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Don't Know Why, But I Love Lucy
Lucy Sullivan can be very annoying. She's too lazy to do her laundry, too dumb to realize her father is an alcoholic, and too ungrateful to appreciate the people who treat her... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting!
This is the first Marian Keyes' book that I have read, and I can't wait to get into "Rachel's Holiday" next!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious and Heart Wrenching
Lucy Sullivan's character appeals to many women because of her low self esteem and seemingly ordinariness. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, but not Keyes' best
Having read two of Keyes' novels previously, I had expected nothing less than the best from Keyes. Her wit, and writing skills usually make for a fascinating read. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Love that Brit humour!!
I did see similarities between this book and Bridget Jones simply because they're both full of eccentric British humor. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love Lucy!
I loved this book.
After reading it I wanted to know more, like a 'Lucy Sullivan 2.' Not that there needed to be more, but I missed her after I read it. Read more
