Getting Rid of Bradley
Author: Jennifer Crusie
Genre: Romance
Book Type: Hardcover
reviewed Stephanie Plum-esque on + 188 more book reviews


Anyone that likes light comedy, mixed with suspense and romance, will love this book. It has a cast of characters including the heroine, her sister, the hero/cop, his partner, the ex-husband, the dogs, and many others that stand out with distinct personalities and wittiness. The book is similar in feel to the Stephanie Plum/Janet Evanovich book series, except with more character development because the entire change for the characters takes place in one book rather than a series. Recommended, light/fun read. As the other reviewers indicated, the first chapter or two are the weakest, then picks up pace and romance quotient.

The only thing I would say about this hardcover edition - skip the author's note at the beginning until after you had read the book, as it intrudes the author's personal life into the plot.
