- 4 of 4 people found the following review helpfulon 27 JuneI cannot rate this book highly enough. I am an avid chick lit reader and love Paige Toon and Lindsey Kelk etc.
The main character Jane is instantly likeable and the authors style is brilliant and I cannot wait to read more books by her.
However I wish there was a sequel to this one.
FAB BOOK - sad its finishedon 4 July"Moving up on Manolos" is a really enjoyable romantic read - the characters are engaging and believable, and the story was pacey
and kept you interested. I found that I really liked Jane as a character, and Michael was intriguing and mysterious
(as a good male lead should be!). I am a sucker for a happy ending - so this ticked all my boxes!2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulon 2 MarchI've just finished this book after finally getting round to it having bought it back when it was released. I'm kicking myself for
leaving it so long!
It's up there with the best modern women's fiction I have ever read, Marian Keyes and Sophie Kinsella need to watch their
backs.
You are instantly drawn into Jane's roller coaster world and the plot is totally believable too. Jane is the every woman and
relating to the character is easy and fun.
I will be starting Nina's next book, Fighting Love, ASAP in the hope that there is an update on Jane within it. If not Nina,
I will be demanding a sequel for Jane "Keeping up with the Choo's" or something?!on 9 NovemberJust finished MOVING UP ON MANOLOS and had to write a quick review to recommend it, it was such a good read.
We can all relate and be envious of the main character as she jets of to Los Angeles and leads the high life for a while.
It was a real page turner and I couldn't wait to find out what would happen next as she gets caught up in all the glitz
and glamour of Hollywood. Its the perfect holiday read or for those long tube journeys,
I hope there are more books on the way!on 19 SeptemberI loved this book! In fact so much so that I had all my book club members read it too.
The characters are strong, personable and believeable.
The storyline had me turning my Kindle pages at speed!
A must read, am looking forward to a sequel...on 25 OctoberPassion, desire, love, confidence, self-steem, motivation, ambition....I relate to the main character and all those intense feelings!
This book made me missed my train twice in 10 days while sitting on the platform. It is that good!on 4 MayI love a bit of Hollywood glamour when I’m in need of an injection of escapism and Moving Up On Manolos delivered just that.
Jane Allen has escaped a controlling relationship but it’s left her fearful and low on self-esteem.
Having given up on her acting dreams, her now famous friend and Hollywood’s top totty Alex Canty’s invite to Hollywood
seems like a daunting prospect. But her flatmate bullies her into a makeover and before she knows it she’s on the flight
across the Atlantic. Met by Alex’s exceedingly handsome but moody cousin Michael, Jane’s journey of self-discovery has
only just begun. And it’s a journey across a very rich, opulent and celebrity populated terrain.
This is the sort of novel that makes you want to shout in triumph every time Jane squishes one of her demons.
Nina Whyle is incredibly insightful about the damage a controlling relationship can do but when
Jane starts grabbing life by the horns and things start going her way, you can’t help but feel smug.
A perfect summery read for those who feel they have lost their way. Read it and believe: life can be whatever you want it to be.
Review by Nikki Mason on behalf of BestChickLit.com1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulon 19 SeptemberI have admired this author's work for a long time and was dying to see where MOVING UP ON MANOLOS would take me.
I wasn't disappointed... It transported me into a fun, engaging world of love, lust, unfulfilled ambition and then some very
satisfying resolutions. This is high class escapist fiction with serious undertones and great humour. Read it!2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulon 14 JuneThis story would make a great romantic movie. Loved it! I can't wait to read more books from Nina Whyle.
on 6 AugustI read this after reading 'fighting love'. it really didn't matter but if you can read this first. Again it does what it says on the tin,
a Romantic Comedy. Jane gets more breaks up the ladder of success and meets not one but two gorgeous men.
