 Never Laughed so Much while Reading a Book Nov 21, 2009
What a fun, easy and totally enjoyable story with a good lesson and smart ending. If you're traveling during the holiday season and want a book to transport you to another world while being stuck on a plane, train or in a car, I recommed Perfect on Paper. I read the whole thing cover to cover while sitting on a lounge chair in front of the ocean. The story made me laugh so many times - even out loud. Good thing people couldn't hear me over the crush of the surf. It's got a positive message that anyone - single or committed - can benefit from!
 Perfectly fun Nov 20, 2009
Fast-paced, cute, poignant story of a young woman (with an affinity for sarcasm) who finds a way to find herself after life throws her a few curve balls. I can see how Waverly's attitude could start to wear a little thin for some readers but overall I was cheering for her.
Even men should read this book Nov 19, 2009
As the manliest of manly men, I typically go into convulsions whenever someone recommends a book from the chick lit genre. No so in the case of "Perfect on Paper." Maria Murnane does an excellent job of capturing the ludicrousness of dating, while painting situations in a way that allows men to laugh at themselves without feeling like the punchline of the joke. Besides, men can learn a lot from a book like this one, like what not to do, or wear, on a date and what women say after tolerating our common foibles. Besides, "Perfect on Paper" has poop and fart jokes. Guys like poop and fart jokes.
For anyone who has lived the not so perfect life, perfectly! Nov 12, 2009
Not to ramble on about life's perfect not-so-perfect moments but this book makes you smile all the way through Waverly's highs and lows. She is an easy character to befriend and maybe it is because she comes to us in such a vulnerable way. I could imagine myself laughing, working, and hanging out with her in the beloved San Francisco. The story is told with a light-heartedness and humor that is a great reminder to us all that as life goes up and down, we could all use a little "Honey" advice to keep it real and to keep perspective. This book delivers just that!! It's hard not to love Waverly and want to be a part of the friendships that keep her going strong. I read the book in 2 days, turning each page to take in the next adventure. An excellent read and one I will send this holiday season to many of my girlfriends!
Loved the book! Nov 11, 2009
I loved "Perfect on Paper." I read the book in one sitting and laughed out loud many times. I just loved the relationship between Waverly and her best friends. I thought the ending was fantastic and I wish this book was a series and I had many more to go. I can't wait for Maria's next book. Run out and buy this book - you won't be disappointed.
