The Book
Waverly Bryson is a late-20s successful businesswoman who almost has it all: dream job in Sports PR, two best friends, and a bar where everybody knows her name. What she doesn't have is a ring on her finger, and after being left at the altar, she's in no hurry. Besides, she has plenty of other issues to tackle, including her wayward father, a new rival at work, and an ever-shrinking amount of personal time. To keep sane, Waverly makes a habit of jotting down "Honey Notes," her own brand of self-deprecating wisdom and pipe-dream for a line of greeting cards.
As Waverly stumbles back into the dating scene (no stalkers or jean shorts, please), her personal and professional lives threaten to collide. Perfect on Paper reminds readers that everyone has a bad date (or twelve), and that everyone needs a best friend to tell them, “Honey, you are not alone."

The Review
Books like this make me glad that I am not dating! The book is hilarious, with a lot of misadventures. Waverly is a really likable and relatable character which will pull you into the story and will have you rooting for her. This book is a classic, "when it rains it pours" novel. Nothing is going right for Waverly and she is desperately trying to find her way back to the road she knows.

I really loved the greeting cards that were featured in the book. They were so great and funny! I wish I could buy them to give to people.

The realtionships that Waverly has with friends and family are interesting and real, it lends a sense of authenticity to the book that I really love.

Overall this is a great chick lit book that I would recommend to anyone!
