Wasn't as good as 1st season
I extremely enjoyed the 1st season of this show and loved the glamor of it all and also the storyline and how it ended wss a good ending to the storyline I don't think a season 2 was needed

3.5 stars.

I have a few issues with the whole lifestyle of manga stories. I don't get some of it. I don't agree with some bits and some bits are quite cute. Therefore I'm giving this one 3.5 stars. The end bit perked it up a bit for me but other than that I was a bit "meh".

I will be continuing the series though.

I picked this up after I saw the movie because I liked it so much, and I’m very glad I did.
Rachel Chu is thrust into the lifestyle of the crazy rich in Singapore when she and her boyfriend Nick travel to attend a wedding of Nick’s best friend. She is treated horribly by Nick’s traditional family and their friends, who are trying their best to get her out of the picture. We follow as Rachel learns about Nick’s past and family, secrets of her own past, and see her struggle to figure out who she is or what she should do.
 The book changes perspective every chapter, so you really get the back story on and thoughts of all the main characters. You learn about this lifestyle that is so extravagant I couldn’t even dream that big. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to pick up the next book!

Omg.. wow.. I don't know this lifestyle but this story wow'd me. It was very good.. I loved the dynamics and the fact that they had real problems. I loved their love for each other and how even through the bad things they still made it. This book was very good and kept my attention through the entire story. I cannot wait to read more by this author.

They're only noodles, Michael
One of my favourite films of all time.
This may be the perfect vampire film - nailing the cool, nighttime lifestyle of the more lucid vampire, who secretly own the town. Twists and turns as Sam and the Frogg Brothers try to work out who the head vampire is and kill him before his minions kill them. Like a 90 minute long Def Leppard video with vampires.
  
Mmmmm ..

Yum yum yum!!!
Ive been on the Paleo lifestyle for about 4 months now and the thing I miss most is something sweet as a treat. This book has so many great ideas, they are simple and easy to follow. For me they are easy to adapt to the Paleo eating style and they taste good !! Highly reccomend using this book to help cure your sweet fix :)

I still don't entirely understand the BDSM lifestyle and sometimes reading about it, I'm a little WTF? but because of the romance aspect/serious attraction between these two from the start I was quickly drawn into it. I liked both of them; Nick with his cocky attitude and Spencer with his need to please him in his submissive role.

I'm looking forward to reading more of these books!

Should have kept the original title "So I Hear You Paint Houses"
Not completely accurate but entertaining nonetheless
Decent "mob" movie
I dont know why I like mob movies so much, that lifestyle wasnt glamorous or anything to aspire to at all. But I'm just trash for mafia movies. It wasn't too bad.. I would still like to know what REALLY happened to Jimmy Hoffa.

It started off quite good but then I got really confused when seven years passed without being told and the old man got killed. Then they were suddenly back in her life and taking her to an island. It all seemed to happen really quick, and the whole island lifestyle had me thinking that it might not have been set in modern times. I carried on reading though to find out where it was leading and it was okay.

I was very impressed with this book when I read it the first time round and again when we did it with the book group. I think it is based on a true story about a boy and his mother being trapped in one room in a bunker with no means of escape or so they think at the time. with a lot of cunning and effort they eventually manage to escape the room and return to a normal lifestyle or as normal as possible.
