Before we dive right into the review, I must first say, “Shame on me.”

Why you might ask? Because I’ve knowingly seen a movie before reading the book. Yesterday I saw He’s Just Not That Into You and loved it. Hilarious. Definitely going on my must buy list for rewatching movie marathons. I’m thinking it’d go great with Devil Wears Prada, Sex and the City and Over Her Dead Body. Got a slumber party coming up? Plan to do manicures and pedicures around these gems.

The basic plot of He’s Just Not That Into You is showing how different relationships work between men and women – and especially those fledgling relationships on the dating scene. All the characters somehow know each other and could feasibly all end up at the same party. I’ll do a little break down of the characters:

Gigi played by Ginnifer Goodwin was a doll. I just loved her. She’s sort of the main character. Her love life is one bumbling screw up after another. Chasing Conor (Kevin Connolly) leads her to Alex (Justin Long) who sits her down to give her some valuable advice about how men brush women off.

Conor is hopelessly in love with a girl who frankly – is just not that into him. The girl in question is Scarlett Johansson’s character Anna. As far as I can tell Anna is a somewhat decent girl who winds up on the worst path to love I could possibly think of all due to her friend Mary (Drew Barrymore) and her advice. Anna’s end is not particularly happy.

Neil (Ben Affleck) has been in a committed relationship with Beth (Jennifer Aniston) for seven years. Neil is not interested in marriage. Frankly despises the constitution and (if I may put words in his mouth) thinks it’s worse than all the greeting card holidays combined. His friend Ben (Bradley Cooper) is a case in point against marriage. Ben feels like he’s been forced into it and is resenting his wife Janine (Jennifer Connelly) more and more.

How does everything work out? Will everything work out? Who knows but sit back and enjoy the ride. If the book is anything like the movie - snap it up!

Healing Luke is a modern day retelling of the classic fairy tale Beauty and the Beast. It’s quick and lighthearted with a few gems revealed towards the end on love and relationships.

Luke Morgan was on a boat when it blew up leaving him with burns, one eye, and no thumb on one hand. He feels his life is ruined forever and is scarred to go to his occupational therapist for fear of failing. Angry and bitter, Luke is sinking fast and his brother and dad have no idea how to help him cope.

Abby Stanford is visiting Florida on what should have been her honeymoon. She’s doing all the trips and outings they had planned, including snorkeling alone. She meets Luke and is surprised and hurt by his antagonism. An occupational therapist herself, albeit with a different focus than what Luke needs, Abby longs to be useful and to help.

Luke watches his brother Aaron flirt with Abby and jealousy rears its ugly head. He wants Abby for himself but is no longer confident of his appeal to women and to one woman in particular.

I loved the workings of the Morgan family: Luke, withdrawn and wounded; Aaron, flirtatious and outgoing; Bart, quiet and unassuming. Abby was such a great fit with them and I really enjoyed seeing that in a romance.
