If you’re looking for a novel that will uplift your spirits and make you laugh out loud with the
many crazy antics of the main character, Clutch is the right fit for you. Caroline Johnson has had
enough of dating over and over and not getting anywhere, and starts comparing her men to
purses. This is the first time I’ve had a chance to read a novel written by Lisa Becker, it may not
have been the type of genre I’ve become accustomed to in the past few weeks, which includes
military, dark themes, paranormal, etc., but it still had storyline that was funny and unique – I’ve
yet to find any other novel with any resemblance. The writing is simple, easy going and a new
way to experience bad breakups, dates and relationships; the characters are relatable and living
lives readers could easily see themselves having. Lisa Becker has managed to create a world
that is realistic, enjoyable and especially laugh out hilarious from beginning to end.

Review
4 Handbags
This was a very cute story. The author writes a very entertaining book about Caroline Johnson. Caroline has a fascination with purses. Something that she got from her grandmother. A woman who has inspired and guided Caroline all of her life. After graduating with a MBA from Harvard, Caroline moves to California with her best friend from Harvard.
Mike runs a very successful bar and jumps from one girl to another. Caroline is constantly finding herself in bad dating situations. Mike is always there to encourage her and giving her dating advice.
So here you have a funny love story that will make you smile. You will hope that Caroline finally finds her perfect handbag, (guy) and Mike finally settles down with one girl. One click this book to follow the antics of Caroline and Mike.
