I'm only giving this book 3 stars. The beginning sucked me in, the middle was ok, but the ending was just not there for me.

I'm sure if you're into celebrity gossip then you might like this story. It's about a young pop star and her cousin working together through a troubled life.

Si eres entusiasta, alegre, te gusta trabajar en turnos de dieciséis horas, que te vomiten encima (literal y figuradamente), que te paguen poco y sin regularidad, y, sobre todo, si no te tomas las cosas muy a pecho y te apetece que te traten como si fueras moho en el fondo de un bolso de Hermès… ¿por qué no trabajas de niñera?
Mientras estudia y se costea su microscópico apartamento, Nanny empieza a trabajar cuidando al hijo de los riquísimos Señores X. ¡No sabe lo que le espera! Pronto aprenderá a hacer todo lo necesario para que la Señora X --que no trabaja ni dentro ni fuera de casa-- tenga un buen día. Y que Grayer, el niño, coma sólo alimentos orgánicos y se mantenga cuerdo en medio de esa loca familia. Y a acostumbrarse a que el Señor X la trate como si fuera invisible. Y, más importante aún, a conservar el sentido del humor, cuidar de su gato George y atraer la atención del estupendo vecino del sexto.… (més)

I don't think either parents had any redeeming qualities. But maybe that was the point. Either way, I'm now more inspired than ever to make sure I'm a good mother.

Other than making graduation an even scarier event, I really liked this book. I sort of wish Girl had another name, Girl just seems far too . . . simple for her. The poor girl, having to shlop through New York making her way through life. Yes, typical chick-lit, but the authors do a very good job of weaving social conciousness into the mix. Also I like the idea of being a feminist in the way Girl portays one, no men-are-evil-I-am-relationship-stunted-and-will-whine-about-it-but-won't-change sort of laments and stuff I'm used to seeing from so-called feminists. : Plus Girl has a real life and real troubles, nothing you can't relate too (well, maybe the whole mother in a commune thing . . .). I really liked it. :)… (més)
