Jen Lancaster hates to burst your happy little bubble, but life in the big city isn't all it's cracked up to be. Contrary to what you see on TV and in the movies, most urbanites aren't party-hopping in slinky dresses and strappy stilettos. But lucky for us, Lancaster knows how to make the life of the lower crust mercilessly funny and infinitely entertaining.… (meer)

Hilarious, as always. ( )

This one was definitely better than her first book. Maybe I just feel that way now that I know she's fat. I laughed out loud reading this at the gym. That probably really weirded out the evil skinny people around me. :) ( )

I'm nominating Fletch for sainthood!

Jen, if you lived with me, I'd change the locks while you were out.

Bright Lights, Big Ass is a great read. Keep writing Jen, I'm looking forward to your next book. ( )

Laughed my butt off through this book! As long as you don't mind sarcasm and the f-word, you should pick this up! ( )

Jen Lancaster is still making me laugh with her grossly inappropriate humor, sarcasm, and observations of people's worst foibles, including her own. She's my idea of the perfect beach read. ( )

When a book starts off by telling Carrie Bradshaw (Sex and the City) to go 'suck an egg' (in not so many nice words), you just have to know that you're in for a treat... and what an amazing one this was. Bright Lights, Big Ass had me laughing-out-loud in so many chapters that people were starting to get my application to the local funny-farm ready. It was really rather embarrassing! Seriously... I'm not kidding.

This is not my first Jen Lancaster book and in fact, it appears that I am reading her backwards, but it doesn't seem to matter. She is so friggin' hilarious that I could read her stories again, and again, and again. I actually found myself telling my husband that I want to be her friend. Her narcissistic personality is the reason that she makes me laugh... I think that those who have the same personality just get it and she, my friends, understands!

One of my favourite things about Jen Lancaster and her writing style is that she tells is like it is. There is no sugar-coating, it is how it is and that's just the way it's going to be. She has such a way with her words that I could imagine myself in so many of the scenarios that she found herself in... especially the day-spa and the 'brown-star'. OMG, still laughing!! (Oops, sorry... Oh My Goodness)

While reading this book, my husband actually told me it was like listening to her book on tape because I 'never.shut.up' the whole time... constantly reading parts to him. Now, if that doesn't say something about the book, nothing will!! It was AWESOME!

So, if you like memoirs... pick up this book and I promise, you will NOT regret it!!
