I can't accept this is what "chick lit" is supposed to be - it is more like pre-teen. The angst and drama Norah goes through for the first 3/4 of the book - well, just too much. I was just shaking my head, thinking that if this poor, pampered girl is having a breakdown over a man, wait until some real life problems occur. Character development could use a boost - there were too many inconsistencies, and worse, characters who appeared so briefly that you were left wondering why they were even mentioned. The other flaw is a reality check - are there really people like that? Shallow, overly dramatic, but perfect girls are the core of the story, with some other characters as props. But many of the other characters were poorly defined, and often inconsistent.

I gave a 2 star rating in spite of all that, because there is a story idea there, but it needed a lot more work to make a memorable book. It is a 'safe' book for someone who doesn't like to read about sexual escapades and loose morals, and who wants the good guys to 'win' in the end. But nothing memorable.

Along the way she meets Orien, who has found a journal on the beach and has fallen in love with the girl who wrote it, now if only he can find her and convince her to trust him.

I devoured this book. All the main characters were very relatable to me. I didn't ever really feel like an outsider looking in on this world, but someone who was learning about the story and was part of the group. There was moments of elements that the reader didn't necessarily know what the group of characters was referring to, but the reader was clued in when they needed the information. I felt like this really pulled the reader into part of the group and made the reading enjoyable for me.

Norah Johnson needs to escape. After her boyfriend, who happens to be a Major League baseball player, announces he is leaving her for another women- who he got pregnant- Norah needs to mend her broken heart. And get away from the paparazzi cameras. Along with her sister and best friend, the three girls head to a summer beach house to clear their minds and find happiness. Norah even starts to attend therapy classes, and tries to get back on track with her clothing line that she is designing. But while there, Norah vents her personal feelings about her ex and the break-up in a journal, and flings that journal into the ocean, never to be seen again. Or so she thought.

The Last Page by Lacy Camey is a light romance story about finding love again after heartbreak. Norah is a sweet character that chick lit fans will be able to relate with, and it was fun watching her create her clothing line and everything that is involved with that process. The close bond that she shares with her sister and friend is also inviting, and the next two books in the series focuses on their characters, which really intrigues me. I did think that book skipped around a bit too much, like when Norah finds out her sister's fiancée is just using her. She overhears his phone conversation, but then nothing really happens with that plot twist. That happened a few times throughout, almost like the book was just too fast-paced. Other than that, I enjoyed reading The Last Page and will be looking forward to more from this Lacy Camey series.
Superficial Norah Johnson receives a beating. After investing four years into a relation, her boyfriend, fiancé, and star baseball pitcher for the NY Yankees, Truett Mason is marrying another woman. How can that happen? She had it all planned. If she was wrong about him, then what about her dream job as a fashion designer?

Making a royal fool out of herself, Norah escapes from the eyes and cameras of the paparazzi to her parents' home. It makes no difference and after months of depression they send Norah and Maycee, her sister, to their summer home at the lake to lick her wounds and get some counseling with Dr. Hood. His advice was rest, fun and a journal? Was he kidding? Wasn't there a fast track or magic pill that she could take and make her troubles disappear? No such luck.

Her parents try to help, but really, a puppy? How is she supposed to take care of it when she can barely get out of bed? However, it's ultimatum time. Norah must produce new dress designs or her chance of a lifetime will be given somebody else. It's not the masterpiece gowns the fashion show calls for, but rather she creates one of a kind outfits for the pup. And things get better yet, when Chloe, her best friend, joins them for a few weeks before she goes as a relief nurse at an orphanage.

Against her better judgment Norah tosses her journal, her deepest thoughts into the lake, but her secrets float to the surface and Orien Jones finds it. Can the cure for a broken heart be as simple as finding a new guy? Hardly.

The Last Page by Lacey Camey is a romance novel. I wasn't expecting to like this book. I didn't like Norah's character and the idea of her wallowing in her self-pity turned me off. However, I kept finding reasons to turn the pages. First in the other characters that cared so much for her, and then finally as the glitter fell from Norah and I read the real person grow from rock bottom to self-reliance.
I can't accept this is what "chick lit" is supposed to be - it is more like pre-teen. The angst and drama Norah goes through for the first 3/4 of the book - well, just too much. I was just shaking my head, thinking that if this poor, pampered girl is having a breakdown over a man, wait until some real life problems occur.
