Product Description

Book Description

According to the old rhyme, ‘Monday’s child is fair of face’ - but life isn’t always so simple. Gorgeous goddesses seem to surround script-reader and wannabe movie-maker Anna Brown - from her deranged glamour-queen boss to her perfect, pouting flat-mates - for Anna, being less-than-beautiful is very hard to bear. With a dead-end job and a ghastly boyfriend to boot, she wonders if she can ever be a success. In fashion and beauty crazed London, perhaps being talented just isn’t enough. Enter Mark Swan, Britain's hottest director. Rugged, reclusive and powerful, everybody wants a piece of him - from studio heads to supermodels. He could be Anna's ticket to the top, but how can she ever hope to snag such a big star? Fed up of being downbeat and dowdy, Anna decides to chase her dreams and, with a little help from her friends, embarks on a madcap scheme to get just what she’s after... --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, Jul 21 2006
By raincloud (Canada) - See all my reviews
If you're looking for chick-lit, this is a great read. Sometimes it's not very realistic, but it's still a fun, interesting story with a happy ending.

2.0 out of 5 stars I expected better from Louise!!, Feb 12 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Mondays Child (Paperback)
I have been a long-time fan of Louise Bagshawe's novels (I have read every one of them), however, I found this novel to be a big disappointment. Her previous books involve strong female characters that have to struggle to overcome large hurdles usually involving grudges between former friends/acquaintences. I will admit that these books are not high quality literature, more beach reads, and I always enjoyed the 'trashiness' of her novels but this one just does not cut it. It seems that she is trying to take on a more comedic style, like that of Olivia Goldsmith, Helen Fielding, Sophia Kinsella, Jennifer Crusie, and others in this field. This novel definitely falls short of the standards set buy these other romantic/comedic authors. I would recommend picking up one of her older novels if you are interested in reading a Bagshawe but otherwise sticking to the other authors I previously mentioned for the romantic comedy reads.

5.0 out of 5 stars a fun read, Aug 12 2005
By Chantal Gendron "cc_gendron" (brossard, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Mondays Child (Paperback)
I personally love Louise Bagshawe. I have read all of her books (by the way it bugs me when they change the titles you think Youppi a new one and then bugger its not) Mondays Child is a fun and entertaining read I really loved Anna. Mark was a great leading man. People in other critics have said that Louise always uses the same formula but in Mondays Child she went for something totally different. It turned out really well. My only negative critic would be the cover It Looks Nothing Like Anna At ALL!!!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book for a refreshingly light read...
Now, we're not talking heavy literature here that needs to be overanalyzed...Monday's Child is simply a fun and lively book about the perils of dating and not feeling... Read more
