This book is one of those books you just love from the start

Jill has a list of doing 30 things before she is 30 and it was fun to meet her. 

A perfect holiday read that will give you a laugh, warm your soul and give you joy.

This book is written more like a script. Almost like the author pictured it being a movie or sitcom and not an actual book. Predictable, no character depth, not something I would recommend.

I wanted to enjoy this book because I had turned 30 when I had first read this book, however I didnt really connect with the story and it became forgettable.  The characters didnt stand out much but I did appreciate the story that was trying to be told.  Its a pretty easy read, just not what I expected or personally enjoyed.

I enjoyed this quick read. It was a heartwarming romantic story.

Jill is about to turn 30 and instead of getting the promotion that she thought she would get, she is fired. To make things worse, she discovers her boyfriend cheating on her. She feels there is no other option but to return home and try to figure out what to do with herself.

In the short time that she is home, she spends more time with her best friend and an ex-boyfriend, causing her to make decisions about what the future may hold for her.

I enjoyed reading this and really didn’t want to put it down until I finished. I liked that it was a more wholesome book, meaning nothing graphic was written or insinuated.

I would recommend this book to anyone.

This was a fun chick-lit read, which entertained me as I read it, but I don't think will particularly stay with me.  The plot setup of a girl on the cusp of 30 losing the two things she thought she valued - a job and a fiance, returning home and rediscovering her life as she pursues a 15 year old bucket list, was fun and engaging, and hinted at some bigger themes.  The characters were also very likeable, but ultimately I felt none of the really interesting ideas or characters were well enough developed.

This is a touching, thought-provoking read. I enjoyed it.

Jill is just a month shy of her thirtieth birthday when she gets fired from her job at a prestigious law firm in New York City where she was hoping to make partner. On that very same afternoon, she goes home to find her boyfriend (and colleague at her former firm) cheating on her with his secretary. Left with no other options, she goes home to stay with her parents until she can sort things out and find a new job. 

It is there in her childhood bedroom that she finds a list, written in high school, of thirty things she wanted to do before her thirtieth birthday. With the encouragement of her family, an old high school crush and her best friend, she decides to spend the next month checking things off the list.

This was an enjoyable, light read that I was able to finish in a day, however, there were parts of it that felt a bit cheesy and predictable. If you are into the lighthearted romantic comedies, you'll probably enjoy this book. If you enjoy something with a little more substance, you might want to skip over it.

Thirty Days to Thirty by Courtney Psak was hands-down fabulous.  I truly enjoyed this story from start to finish.  Great job!
