Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns by Lauren Weisberger
Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns - A Mixed Bag
summarizeEditor's Summary
I was expecting a wild ride with Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, but unfortunately, it fell flat for me. Lauren Weisberger's writing is still top-notch, but the story's predictability and one-dimensional characters made it a chore to finish. If you're a fan of fashion or strong-willed women, you might enjoy the insider knowledge and behind-the-scenes looks, but for me, the book's problems outweigh its perks. I was hoping for more depth and complexity, but what I got was a lighthearted, easy read that lacked real substance.
