girls of riyadh

the only reason i bought this book is because i live in riyadh ... i've known about it long before moving here but only after moving here did i feel an urge to read it ... it is as you might guess from the title a chick book ... this book is about four spoiled saudi girlfriends ... some might say they are just horny ... others might say they are looking for love ... either way ... the way it's written is that a friend of these four girls is telling their love stories through a series of emails ... i was not impressed at all with this book ... i thought it was very silly and superficial ... and poorly written ... and i think the only reason it was so successful is because of it's taboo-ness ... the only good thing about the book is that it's a light read ... i give it a 4/10 ...
