Case in point, this quote: "There were never any women who looked to cook for men every day. There were only women who cooked for survival and pretended to like it. And now there are men who cook for survival. Like you. Think of this as survivalist training. Very macho." It had its moments. It...
Ugh! The last time a book infuriated me this much was Gone Girl. I hate that book for nearly the same reasons as this. Characters are unlikable and ridiculous, Zach is a brat and Lucy is an obtuse naive idiot who somehow teaches physics. The plot is a hot mess of sloppy amateur writing and compl...
I'm not by and large a fan of romance books--but I am a fan of Jennifer Crusie, in particular of her book "Bet Me"--an all-time favorite I rated five stars. This just doesn't rise to that level--not close. It's more the kind of book which I doubt I'll remember a year from now, while years after read...
In the mood for the book form of a sitcom? You can't go wrong with Jennifer Crusie. Getting Rid of Bradley is about as far from reality as you can get without actually veering into Science Fiction or Fantasy. Lucy has just divorced Bradley after catching him in her house with a blonde. Zach is ...
I really didn't have problem with Crusie's writing but the story was not good enough and characters here weren't any likable. Lucy, Zack and of course Bradley were are all too loud and too reckless for my type. But of course I enjoyed Crusie's quirky and witty dialogs one of the plus point of this b...
A nice romantic novel but nothing spectacular. Lucy is a recent divorcee. Her ex-husband’s name is Bradley. She wants to get rid of his things in her house so much she pushes his favorite chair into the basement. Zack is a police officer. He is chasing an elusive embezzler named Bradley. Are they th...
The beginning of the book had me thinking this was going to be a zany story. There was a lot of screwball humor. Crusie seems to be setting up a great story with two characters that seem different from anything I have read before. Love how Lucy keeps saying "sorry I beat you up" and Zach keeps g...
Liking or not liking a book is such a personal thing. Sometimes readers come across triggers when reading a book that cause dislike, distaste, horror to set in. I know I've been there, done that. For instance, I read a very popular author's book not so long ago that was praised very highly and lo...
The cover I have I don't know where in the story the artist got it from but nope, doesn't work for me, I wouldn' t have picked this one up from the cover, and I would have been so wrong. I made the mistake of starting this one last night after finishing another book with the idea of reading a few ...
