Coffee and Kung Fu A Novel

by Karen Brichoux

W. W. Norton | May 23, 2003 | Trade Paperback

Twenty-six-year-old Nicci Bradford doesn''t exactly love her job fixing the grammar in company brochures, or living in Boston, or going on awkward fix-ups with men she barely knows. What she does love is Kung Fu movies...especially the ones starring Jackie Chan. Their timeless and inspired wisdom offers her a philosophy of life. The problem is she doesn''t have much of a life to philosophize about. But Jackie Chan is also a pretty good action hero.

    Worth the money

    The book was originally pointed out to me by my boyfriend, no doubt due to its pink cover (obvious chick-lit). Since it was less than $5 I picked it up, figuring "how bad can it be?"

    In the end I was pleasantly surprised. Its plot is a little predictable and not exactly earth-shattering. It won't make you giggle on the bus in the way that Sophie Kinsella's novels do, but it will keep you interested and wanting to know what happens next. In the end, I'd rate it "cute," but not "amazing".
