Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns

I was so excited to get this book! I read other reviews before I got the book, and I was really upset... The book I waited so long for had gotten some terrible reviews :(Actually, it started out really slow - much had changed for Andrea, and it got a bit, well... Boring. But trust me, the Miranda we all love to hate comes back in full force, and BONUS!!!! We get to see a side of Miranda that we didn't see in the first book.Unlike "Return to the Big Fancy" (Freeman Hall's 2nd part of "Retail Hell"), this book doesn't place you right back into the same situation (not that I mind that, Freeman Hall rocks!) , this book takes place later in Andrea's life.I'm not going to give away anything about this book - the other reviews I read gave away some bits that I would have enjoyed discovering for myself, but I will say if you enjoyed "The Devil Wears Prada", you will enjoy catching up with Andrea (and Miranda).This book wasn't as good as the first, but I loved it!A perfect beach book - you can relax with this story and just go with it.

I loved The Devil Wears Prada, so I was disappointed to read that its sequel had gotten such mixed reviews. The mixed reviews obviously didn't stop me from reading the book, but I did go in with fairly low expectations. Imagine my surprise when I stayed up late reading the entire first quarter of the book the night I started it!I had read a serious book right before reading this, so I found Revenge refreshingly light and entertaining. It was an easy read following the serious book, which was exactly what I needed!Initially, a lot of Revenge is Andy rehashing memories of her time with Miranda and these snarky descriptions are what made the original Devil so good. This time around, the Miranda memories do feel a bit warmed over, but are probably necessary to set the stage.In Revenge, Andy and Emily end up on the receiving end of the charming version of Miranda (the version most celebrities saw in Devil). It was really interesting to see the juxtaposition of how she treats people she wants something from versus how she treats her underlings. You can feel her transform between personalities right before your eyes and then back again in seconds.I also enjoyed the secondary storyline of Andy's marriage to Max Harrison, the son of a Media scion, and found her stuck-up snob of a mother-in-law to be somewhat amusing character. Even though she was dislikable, she added some humorous ridiculousness to the story.Despite enjoying the book and flying through it, I hated the ending, and that seems to be the consensus among other reviewers. It couldn't have been more cliche and you could see it coming a mile away. Actually, there were a lot of cliche moments in this book and I rolled my eyes at some parts. But, I have to go on overall feeling while reading a book and I enjoyed this one for what it was...something light, easy, and not thought provoking. Sometimes you just need a book like that.For more reviews, check out my blog, Sarah's Book Shelves.

I loved reading The Devil Wears Prada. It was fun, fast ride through the world of publishing the most coveted fashion magazine in the world and reading about Andy going from dowdy little nothing to style super star was fun. This book is ok, but there were places I just thought about finding a different book to read. It skips a whole section about what happens after Andy & Emily sell their magazine and Andy’s relationship with her husband. Also the editing isn’t very good in one paragraph you’re at a party, the next you’re changing diapers. Seems there should have been slipped out of the party, and a new chapter starting with the next morning. It’s ok. But if you’re expecting the devil anywhere, she only passes through momentarily. I’m sure there’s something else better out there about the NY publishing world.

I was so excited when I found out a sequel for "The Devil Wears Prada" was coming in. I never thought that I would be such a fan and grow so close to the characters in these books, but I did thanks to 'Weisberger's writing style.I read review upon review stating that this follow-up book was horrible. I was very hesitant to "waste my time" as others had said. I absolutely loved getting to rekindle with these characters. I think that the main problem that everyone has with the book is that the title is slightly misleading. If you really think about it, maybe it's not necessarily about Andy get revenge on Miranda Priestly. Miranda Priestly was always the one that wore the Prada, and a tiger can't change its stripes. Miranda was back and was there to hope everyone would still continue to mock her miserable lifestyle.This book has many (not completely unexpected) twists and heart retching turns. I think that this book helps show that Andy was able to eventually do what was best for her, which in the long run put her life back on track and with the people she loved the most.I will be re-reading this again and again! Thanks Lauren, for another great distraction from our every day life!

Muito boa a história, bem elaborada

Not as good as the devil wears prada

I enjoyed reading it. It's fun and funny, and one for the road. I might not read it again, although I have a habit of rereading many of my novels.

Great price for a hardcover best seller! Absolutely love Lauren Weisberger! Her first novel, the Devil Wears Prada was an excellent read and a great movie as well! I always prefer a novel over it's film counterpart - but it's nice to watch the film and read the book because then you can put faces to the characters! I know this novel got a lot of flak saying it wasn't as good as the first one, but in my opinion, I actually really liked it! However, I would have chosen a different name for the novel as Miranda Priestly is not necesarily out for "revenge". Still a great read though!
