The plot was pretty predictable, but it was still a fun read. Woman gets dumped by her boyfriend, girlfriends rally around to cheer her up. She decides to heal her wounds by making a list of all the things that she could do now that she was single, and then working her way through the list. She and her friends made up the list over several drinks at a local bar, so you can imagine the sorts of things on the list. The only thing I didn't like was the ending. It kind of felt like she was shedding one bad relationship just to jump into another equally bad one. On the other hand, maybe the fact that he was no prince charming on a white stallion is part of what made it workTags : The Single Girl's To-Do List [Lindsey Kelk] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers.

I skipped through 45% of this, so I give the parts I read a 3. This could've been amazing but the content just fell flat.
Im so glad that I tried this book. I loved it. Ive been searching for an author who can match Sophie Kinsella and I think I've found it in Kelk and this book. The story was engaging, believable and the characters were great. The one possible weak link in this one was the main male lead who I was not totally convinced by. The story really belongs to Rachel and her two friends though. I wanted Matthew (the gay best friend) to be MY BFF. And Emelie was quirky and loyal and could have starred in her own novel. Highly recommend this one.
This book was exactly what I needed. I've been single for two years, bored, wondering what the he'll I wanted with life & why the he'll was I single? What I had forgotten in my time of loneliness was that being in a lifeless relationship with a complete loser is so much worse then getting lonely from time to time & that when the time was right & I'd be not single if I wanted to be. She reminded me of the importance in valuing yourself as an individual & how freeing it can be nice you get over the social pressures of the ticking clock.
This really was a laugh out loud for me. Absolutely fabulous clever dialog, which gets me every time.
Rachel is a list maker, and when she is dumped by her boyfriend of 5 years, her best friends Emelie and Matthew jokingly help her write a "single girl's to do list" so that she will laugh as they are out drinking one night. But Rachel decides the list is "real", and begins working through it.
Of course the list does wonderful things for her, pushes her out of her comfort zone, and shows her there is a lot out there in the world.
I LOVED the writing here, and as I mentioned, I laughed out loud many times. I laughed on a plane, I laughed alone, I laughed sitting alone in a restaurant... Of course, now my reading "to do" list now includes reading more of Lindsey Kelk.
3.5 Star Rating
Rachel Summers had it all until her boyfriend broke up with her and she decided to create a list of things to do while being single.
It's a fun and light read and can be pretty laugh out loud funny at times. Rachel Summers can be pretty dense at times and I was really frustrated with her being so judgmental of the romantic love interest in the story. You get really annoyed with it 3/4 through with the story and you just want to smack her.
I was surprised with the ending though because it wasn't completely predictable but it really gives you the sense of independence for a woman. That single women are strong and shouldn't just dive right back into a relationship because it's there and in front of you but to really find yourself first. I did like that message in the story that's why I'm giving it the extra half star.
My first 5 star review of 2012 and I now have another favorite author in the chicklit genre. Can't believe I'd never read anything by Lindsey Kelk before. Her style reminds me a bit of Marian Keyes in the earlier years, like Last Chance Saloon and Sushi for Beginners, but I digress.
The Single Girl's To-Do List was definitely a page turner. The writing flowed incredibly well and never while I was reading did I get bored, antsy or want to skip ahead.
Rachel (Raquel!) Summers was a great main character and I loved watching her develop from set in her ways and old beyond her actual age to fun, spontaneous and independent. Although her love interest was pretty predictable, I didn't mind and loved the slow build up. What I enjoyed the most was Rachel's relatinship with her best friends, Matthew and Emelie. While the characters were sort of stereotypical chick-lit characters (the gay best guy friend and the beautiful but loyal girl best friend), the interaction between the three of them was very believable and often laugh out loud funny. Classic chick-lit if I ever read it. And I can't wait to read more of Kelk's novels!
I have been a fan of Lindsey Kelk's work for a while now and have slowly been making my way through her novels. This one in particular has been sitting on my TBR shelf and kindle for a few months and I picked it up because of the GORGEOUS and FUN cover. I am so glad that I have actually gotten around to reading it. The Single Girl's To-Do List is a breath of fresh air and pure chick like GOLD. It's got a fantastic set of characters, a realistic and relatable plot, and a little bit of an unexpected romance to bring a smile to readers face.
