There are two ways to appreciate this book, either by giving 2 stars or 4 stars. 2 stars because the protagonist of the story acts like 13 year old girl than 30. Well, that made the story interesting and it changed in the end. She grow and so do her love to somebody else, if you believe to things that aren't we used to be we can get it like a falling star waiting to be catch by the dreamer. 4 stars because I can't stop from reading the book, it was simple but the concept was far different to other books I've read or I'm not a chic-lit hoarder, I only read chic-lit if I want to unwind myself.

I really liked the book because the protagonist, Kate, have a certain thing that produces a greater outcome in the end. Far from what I expected and her last decision was the most outstanding thing ever happened between the reader and the protagonist. From the first chapter of the book until the end, I can't stop form turning the pages one at a time and reading every wonderful words that popping in front of your naked eyes.

While the story progress you can feel the tension and the annoyance of the protagonist being so obsess to one guy that cares for her but wanted fame. She met this guy whose name is Jake Sharpe, he was like Bieber in real life, I'm not joking and it was true. Being cocky and everything, jeez, that's what a fangirl all about or maybe I'm wrong. Believe it or not Jake broke with Kate to made millions and platinum records. I don't know if he really has the guts to face her after the end of the story.

The story was absolute, she had a friend who always cares for her, Laura, a bandmate who always on her side for fun and a family who always cares for her. She's blind and getting rotten waiting for Jake, not realizing there are still million of cute guys waiting for her and those people who cares for her were the greatest treasure she can get. Jeez, that's what love can do, made you blind. Kidding.

The story alternates from year 2005 and her childhood years with Jake, well that made the story again unique and I enjoyed this one than Nanny Diaries. I think her friend Laura, should receive the high dedication in her life and most important is she is sick of love. Dedication is a story of a woman waiting for her soulmate until the end of life in Earth.

Kate, a 30 year old woman, a successful, intelligent and educated but one thing that really lacks in her life. It was someone who can comfort her forever and she thought that soulmate of her will last forever. It was like a song, a three minutes song for a 17 year old girl is a lifetime but for a 30 year old woman it's just a song. A song that only last for 3 minutes and nothing in the end.


Pete Doherty is a great disappointment after all those hard work he just waste it because of drugs and alcohol. I only read one of the articles online that he's trying to change, a no drug Pete Doherty. I pity them.

Rating - Dedication: A Novel by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus, 4 Sweets and to Laura, no to Kate. (I can't wait to read more of your works, girls you did a great job for this book although some readers don't liked it. Everyone have different tastes.)
