On the whole, I really enjoy Jennifer Crusie, however, I found this book disturbing. I find the subject of being stalked by an ex-lover incompatible with what is otherwise a light romantic romp.

Your mileage may vary. It's competently written.

This is not a cozy mystery and it is not a conventional romance, so I guess I would call it chick-lit...the sex didn't make me uncomfortable but there are a couple of creepy characters who do. This was okay for a lazy Saturday read, but definitely not a keeper. If I read anything else by this author, I will pick it up from the library.

A fun read.

Quinn McKenzie breaks up with her long time boyfriend, Coach Bill Hilliard -- the town of Tibbett's championship coach, because she wants to keep the stray dog she has found and she wants something different and more exciting in her life.

Then things do get exciting -- she explores a new old love, buys a house and her ex turns into a stalker determined to win her back. And she's not the ony one in town causing excitement.

Fun, quick read - a dash of romance, a dash of comedy, and a bit of a dark twisty side...

Jennifer Cruisie always makes me smile. She has mastered her craft and truns out a tight, fast paced story. Her characters are full of life and energy, if somewhat goofy in a dull way at first. Until I fall in love with them,that is.

Exciting, funny read from the beginning to end with some sadness when characters are hurt and hurting. Quinn, Bill, Nick, Zoe and Katie the Lil dog are some of the characters wanting love, change, no change.

Sometimes a girl's gotta do what she's gotta do, even if it's not the most popular thing. Crazy for you started slow, I wassn't swept into the story like some of Crusie's others. But as the story progressed it became more interesting. Light, funny, with a hint of suspense, overall it was a quick and fun read.

This is one of my favorite books ever. There's just something about the characters that pull you in. It goes to show that just because something looks perfect from the outside doesn't mean it's not rotten in the middle. Love the sexual tension between the main characters and their best friend relationship. It's a good book and definitely worth the credit.

This book is sexy and funny. I think girls really do like not so nice guys. Very nice guys tend to be boring.
The ex-boyfriend here was crazy..very crazy.
