I wanted to ask if some of you had read that book in diferent language.
Because I read it in french and in English and the story was different in the two version.
There were missing scènes or scènes that wear added. The ending was not even realy the same.
Is it alwase like that ?
Do the translator always changes the story ?
BB is the only book that I read in 2 language so I don't know...
If you know anything about it, feel free to share :)



First how was the end of the two books??
I read in portuguese and basically Chloe work for 2 months in another company and then Ryan appears in her apresentation and things work btw them. There is Beautiful Bitch and they got engaged in this one,but I dont read.

Well in french it ends like in spanish. The two of them argue after the hôtel and then Clohé works for someone else and B. go to the présentation. But in the french version, we don't have all the cute scenes alter the hotel like their texts messages, when they go to each others hauses, we don't have the pool scene in the hotel, and a lot more. I think they made the book end way to fast... And they even added some scènes that were not in the english version


This is not about a different translation, but about a different book altogether.
Ok, so I've read a lot of books in my life, so much so that sometimes I mix up the plots.
I had read this book at least twice in past, and I had loved it so much I thought I'd go for a reared.
Here I am, right from the start of the book, feeling that something is off. Until I get a few chapters from the end and realise the storyline is completely different.
I could've sworn the ex's name from Paris was Rebecca and not Sylvie and that they had split up because she wanted to get married and he didn't and that's why he'd come back to Chicago.
Chloe was a full-fledged employee and not an intern doing an MBA in her spare time.
She doesn't go back home to spend time with her father.
The incident with Gugliotti never happens, actually, they are together when they go back to Chicago.
Chloe does resign but only because she sees Bennet embracing the Parisian ex outside his apartment and jumps to conclusions.
I can't tell if I'm mixing up plots or not.
People I need to know: am I crazy or am I crazy???

P.S.: sorry for dumping this on you, but I don't know where else to ask.


I only read the English one and I seem to have a different version.

In my copy they get engage in Paris and never broke up at all.
