Another fun little read by this author with a fabulous cast and snappy dialogue, plus lovely dogs and a psychotic cat. I had cause to question Lucy’s decisions, especially when her life’s in danger, but this moves the plot and gives the character plenty of room for change. Light fiction, but enjoyable. ( )

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 a cop of the reckless, gorgeous variety chasing down an elusive embezzler and suspects her ex-husband might be who he's after. Hilarity and romance ensues amid bullets and bombs. Oh, and dogs. There are a lot of dogs.

I love Crusie's writing because she creates great characters, the kind I'd enjoy being friends with, and because she always catches my funny bone in just the right spot. Not laugh-out-loud funny a la Evanovich, but consistently humorous and entertaining. No dark, heavy, emotional moments are going to be found between the covers of this book; just a lot of wildly improbable action, witty dialogue, and a smattering of sex and romance.

I won't call Getting Rid of Bradley one of her best, but it is one I've enjoyed reading more than once and I know I'll enjoy reading again. ( )

I am a huge fan of Jennifer Crusie books, and I wasn't disappointed with this romantic mystery-thriller. Strait laced Celeste is a target for murder, and unkept detective Zachary Warren has moved into her house to protect her. The sexual tension begins immediately. The intensity remains high right until the end, and it was easy to get immersed into the story. ( )

More romance novel than typical chick-lit like I am used to. While chick-lit is essentially the same story, this seemed over the top "woman's ideal" which I associate with romance novels. Bad boy wants to settle down and get married two days after meeting the woman. Also things heaved and thrusted more than was necessary. Not a bad book but not really my cup of tea. ( )

I actually read this one a few days ago. But I thought it was so hilarious. Loved jt ( )
