No stars – I couldn’t even finish it
1 star – I didn’t like it but I managed to finish it.
2 stars – It was OK. Not good, but seriously just OK.
3 stars - I liked it. I didn’t think it was great, but I thought it was good entertainment.
4 stars – I really liked it. I really think you might like it too.
5 stars – It was amazing. I’d recommend this to just about anyone.

Good choices! This was one of the few I will be joining in 2009. I loved choosing last year and was happy to see the challenge up again for 2009.
I hope you enjoy Murder On A Girl's Night Out as much as I did. Good luck with the challenge!
Vickie: thanks - and I was able to pick from books that were already on my TBR list.
Literary Feline: I've seen several positive reviews so I'm looking forward to that one.
