Family Fun

Animal House meets Liar's Poker in this hysterically funny, often unbelievable, and absolutely, positively true account of life at DLJ, one of the hottest investment banks on Wall Street. I enjoyed this book. It was a light and easy read. Sometimes you just need to read a book without having to put alot of thought into it. It was written from four different POVs and the author did a good job of relaying the different characters personalities. De un tiempo a esta parte me ha dado por los libros de inversiones, bancos y delitos monetarios en general. Quizá sea porque una vez yo estuve a punto de entrar en el negocio de las opciones y futuros, aunque finalmente me quedé como estoy, pobre pero haciendo física. Layla is the overachiever with big dreams and plans. She was refreshing especially after reading about Kimmy. After reading an application from a guy Bradley who fulfills what she’s looking for, she embarks on a quest to meet him. Her storyline was pretty engaging but I didn’t like the conclusion of it. It seemed so sudden for her to dump Bradley without even trying to tell him what she would like in bed and just have an epiphany that Jamie is the guy for her.. It would have been far more realistic for her to keep believing in perfection only to have it squashed gradually (the keyword), hence leading her to her ultimate choice.

Jamie is the comedian. He’s not good-looking but his personality makes up for it as he’s funny and smart. I liked how he was initially crazy about Kimmy then later lost interest in her after falling for Layla. However, I thought that the whole family complications thrown in were out of place and didn’t serve much of a purpose. Plus, as much as I enjoyed reading about him and Layla, they just seemed to end up together in such a strange way. It’d have been better if they were friends for a longer period of time before getting together. MONKEY BUSINESS' is the second book by Sarah Mylnowski that I have read, the first being `AS SEEN ON TV', and while I didn't love `AS SEEN ON TV' I did really enjoy her writing style. Now her fourth novel, `MONKEY BUSINESS' brings that same style to the table but with what is in my opinion a better story line and more likeable characters. Parker writes intense storylines that anyone can relate to. Her characters are complex, with long and sometimes turbulent pasts that they have overcome, that still continues to affect their present. . . . I cannot wait to see where she takes this new series.”—Fresh FictionIn her fourth novel Sarah takes us to the competitive world of a top ten business school with four very distinct and interesting characters:
