a review of The Devil Wears Prada   
Spoiler warning: key plot disclosed


I initially wanted to read this book because I heard that they were going to do a movie of it. Now, I'm not entirely sure if I'm even going to bother with the movie at all.

Don't get me wrong, The Devil Wears Prada is not bad per say. The author is witty and made me smile reading the colourful language. Unfortunately, it just seems like every other contemporary female novel. It doesn't seem like a particularly unique experience.

Additionally, I'm not quite sure if I liked the ending of the book. It felt a little unresolved - what happened to Christian? Does Andrea get her big break?? Does she get to rub success into Miranda's face?? Perhaps there needs to be a sequel.

Although, I'd imagine my opinion of its sequel will not differ much from what I think of this book. Read it once, then sell it to the second hand bookstore.
