Slightly Settled (Slightly #2) 
Tracey, without realizing it, is pretty much advocating taking pills (she takes them for anxiety) cause they are helping her to lose even more weight. She is still talking to her ex-boyfriend Will twice a week cause apparently she has no spine and cannot just ignore his freaking phone calls. When Tracey ends up meeting a guy at her job named Jack, she tells herself to just think of him as a transitional boy, but she of course starts thinking about weddings and being with him forever. She also still harbors a crush or something on her guy friend Buckley.
This whole book felt exhausting to me. I just wanted Tracey to get her crap together. Instead she is sitting in judgement of mostly everyone she is close to and ping ponging between two guys. I say two because Will is just a voice on the phone for the whole book.
Another good book! I'm on a roll lately. I enjoyed this just as much as the first book and am looking forward to the third installment, Slightly Engaged, which I now have coming through interlibrary loan. I also read Mike, Mike and Me from the same author. Just as enjoyable as this series.
This was a fun (and funny) book! Tracey wears a sexy low cut gown (that she only recently trimmed down to fit into) to her company Christmas partyMistake 1. She has too much to drinkMistake 2. She makes out with a cute guy she's never met before, in front of everyoneMistake 3. He turn out to be her boss's roommateMistakes keep piling up! But maybe this guy Mike can get her over her exwho suddenly seems to want her back. Oh, and her best guy friend that she's always had a bit of a crush on is now

Should I, shouldn't I.....over and over and over.....about EVERYTHING! If I knew this character in real life, I'd just have to start laughing in her face because she can't make an independent decision!I have nothing else on my to-read list, so I will finish the series, but that is the only reason. These are a fast read, and "cutsie", but never something I would spend money on.
This is the second book in the 'Slightly' series. Its not often in the chick lit world that as the series continues, the books stay good. It wasn't as great as the first one, but was still pretty decent. The main character stayed the same, as did her friends. It takes place a few months after the first book ended, and Tracey meets a cute guy at the office Christmas party who turns out to be her boss's roommate. Her friend Buckley who she's had a bit of a crush on since the first book breaks up
I fell upon this series and so far I have found that I can not put it down. As you know, all I require from a book is entertainment. I found this series so entertaining. Tracey is so insecure but I find her relatable if not a little too paranoid. But this is why we read Amelia Bedelia and Shopaholic, right? We sort of are attracted to the underdog. To women who make us feel good about ourselves. I am proud of Tracey for getting away from her boyfriend, Will. This novel is about Tracey finding a
I loved this book when I was in my 20's but re-reading it at 37 makes me cringe. The main character is so self involved bordering on neurotic.

Commentary During Books Slightly Settled (Slightly #2)
Oh wow, this second book really just went downhill for me. Tracey is 100 percent scared to be single. I really wish besides some characters giving that some lip service here and there, it actually had been addressed. Tracey throws herself into a something with a guy she meets at her job called Jack while also still harboring feelings for her ex and sort of wanting to be with a long time guy friend. The ending made me roll my eyes.Tracey, without realizing it, is pretty much advocating taking pills (she takes them for anxiety) cause they are helping her to lose even more weight.

After losing 50 lbs (with the help diet, exercise and prescription drugs for panic attack that also diminishes her appetite), Tracey Spadolini is now able to wear sexy clothing in a size eight. A svelte figure combined with drinking excessively and having sex with men she barely knows, appears to be the key to attracting men. I did not find this novel to be a "fun journey for the reader", as indicated on the book cover. The women in this book are presented in a negative light. They areAnother good book!
