This book had a hackneyed "chick-lit" plot -- a real disappointment, since I liked her first novel "Till the Fat Lady Sings".

Not the normal type of book I read but I was in dire need of fluff (have been reading too much durge lately) and this fit the bill. Easy to read with a little romance/sex. If it weren't "fluff" I might be more critical of the lack of character development and unfinished possible story lines. There were lots of events that made me wondered why they were even included because there was no follow through. Still it was a decent pick for what I wanted at the time.

I got this book at the local "Friend of the Library" sale. I had no idea what it was about, just liked the title. (Lame, I know.) Anyway, I was looking for something to read the other day and picked it up. It was great! Katherine is easy to connect with.
Tthere is humor and romance, two of my favorite things. It fits right in with books I enjoy.

Perhaps because I was a language major, this book was very appealing. I also liked the title.

I picked this one up off my bookshelf because I didn’t have the time to run out to the library. The best way I can describe it is exactly that….a bookshelf filler. It didn’t have much substance or suspense. It was stupidly predictable. The main character, Kat, comes off as a spoiled and bratty woman child that seems to always get what she wants it. Her character development put a bad taste in my mouth.

I guess this counts for another book read for my 2022 reading challenge. I wouldn’t recommend this book.

A forty something former soap actress who's bills are paid by working as a teacher at a language institute. She's going through a divorce with a guy who's an @@@. She's basically a single mother, as the father doesn't want anything to do with their son at the moment.
Mix in a border who turns out to be a spy in search of her father, also a former spy, a mother who doesn't want to let go, a betrayal by a friend and the concoction makes up this story. It was fine reading it. I never got to involved with it, though I can't really finger anything that's wrong with Sex as a second language. I guess it just didn't hit the mark personally for me, and in all honesty, we rate the books on how they leave us in the end on a personal level.

This book is not about sex.

It is about developing relationships between those of differing backgrounds and languages. A light-hearted read.

Light, entertaining, funny read.

If you need a break this is easy nice reading, will take you in a journey of English teacher and her Iranian friend. I loved the story you wouldn't be able to put it down from your hand. highly recommended :o)

not even worth opening

It was good, but not awesomely good. I did finish it in one day though.

Funny, light reading. Good characterizations and story line.
