She's All That (Spa Girls Series #1) Review

This was a funny book that had me laughing out loud in the break room at work. It's about a girl who had a master's degree from Stanford but refuses to use it, who has a speech impediment when it comes to talking to attractive men, and whose bad hair ruined her life. Against her Grandmother's constant nagging for her to grow up and find a real job, she listens to her heart and follows her gut. While she may seem like she has no confidence on the surface, when you read further into the book and really start to develop a relationship with her, you realize that she has unbelievable confidence! She doesn't back down when other people tell her that she is wasting her time on fashion. She knows she is good at what she does and isn't afraid to say it. She pushes herself to do her best and doesn't accept anything less. I love books that are told in the first person because it feels like they are telling their story to you. And I think you develop a better relationship with the main character when they tell the story. This book is the first in a series of the "Spa Girls Collection". Basically, it's these three friends whose problems can all be solved (if not, minimized) by going for a "Spa Weekend". I think each book will be about a different girl. I can't wait for the next one to come out!

The first novel in the Spa Girls Collection, She's All That focuses on Lilly Jacobs, a San Francisco fashion designer determined that her "bad hair" is the root source of her problems--but a nagging grandmother, a vixen boss, and well-meaning friends certainly aren't helping matters.

This was the last book of a trilogy. I thought it was the best out of all three. I guess because i liked the character in it, and felt that she was more real than the other lead characters in the other two books. Still out of Kristin Billerbecks books, I liked her first books... Shes out of control, ect... This trilogy wasn't her best.

Best friends since Johnny Depp wore scissors for hands, "The Spa Girls" live very separate lives, but stay in touch with routine visits to California's Spa Del Mar. The third novel in the Spa Girls Series\' focuses on Silicon Valley chiropractor Poppy Clayton, who is as calm, cool and adjusted as they come\'Or is she? Known for her bad fashion sense, a love for all things natural, and the inability to get a second date, Poppy is beginning to wonder if she might be misaligned herself. Her route to self discovery will be an unnatural one-a plastic surgeon, a house in Santa Cruz and a wedding date from the dark side. It's all enough to send a girl-and her gal pals-running for the spa.

A Girl's Best Friend (Spa Girls Series #2)) Review

Book two of the Spa Girls Collection features Morgan Malliard, the rich jewelry heiress who, at age 29, still lives with her cold, controlling father. She has just found out, along with the rest of San Francisco, that Andy, the man she eloped with, was already married. After getting a quick annulment, she decides that all her embarrassing failures with men are due to the fact that she's never lived in "the real world." Thus begins Morgan's foray into independence, which proves more trying than she thought when she discovers that job-hunting can be humiliating, cheap shoes hurt, and it's always best to take the good car when going on long trips.
Eventually, Morgan learns that there's more to life than money and that the price she's been paying for luxury is way too high. Find out how this society girl/heiress learns how to stand on her own two feet.
The quirkiness of the characters and the surprising plot twists and turns will keep you reading this fun chick lit about three admittedly "desperate" best friends who are learning to deal with their various "issues" God's way. - Melanie Dickerson, Christian Book Previews.com

Three friends. One spa. And an infinite amount of oversharing! The second novel in the Spa Girls Collection focuses on Morgan, who seems to have it all--diamonds at her disposal, a willowy figure, elegance, and a doting daddy. But her etiquette-controlled, well-sculpted life has left her without an identity to call her own.
