Don't think I will be picking this one up! Sounds just a little too silly for me :). Then again, that might just be because I tend to go for heavier, historical fiction books this time of year. Maybe I will readdress the book next summer. A female spy agency disguised as a makeup company? Don’t think I will be picking this one up! Sounds just a little too silly for me :) .

With the critiques of structure and chronology, I don't this is a "MUST READ"-read, but it can be stuck on the "if I need a fluffy funny book for a trip", for the right time. I agree on the Mary Kay/Carrie Mae bit -- it struck me immediately too. And then I started thinking about my aunt, who is a National Director in MK, and got rather tickled at the idea of her as an international spy, haha ... :) This sounds absolutely hilarious!

Then when Mary Kay (excuse me, Carrie Mae) is exposed as a top secret spy organization I was sold. Send me a jar of night creme and a exploding eyeliner, I will be ready to help the cause. Sadly, another potentially good read suffering from a lack of good editing I believe. So I won't be reading this one, but love the idea just the same. Thanks for the review!

I laughed a little bit when I read the title of the company: is Carrie Mae a thinly disguised reference to Mary Kay? It seem the criticisms from the reviewer outweigh the positives, which means this one won't be making my list. I think “fluffy chick-lit spy novel” must be a new genre that I haven’t heard of!
