Read from July 20 to 31, 2010

Finished it about 2 weeks ago. Boy oh boy did this book earn its place on my Top Books EVER list!

Crosley never ceases to crack me up, almost embarrassingly so. Even on a solo bus trip on my way to a funeral, I was literally laughing out loud, no joke.

She tightened up her style since her last book, "I Was Told There'd Be Cake", which I also adored. Her sidetracked flow of consciousness made more sense this round. The stories were well thought out & intriguing, even if the initial topic at hand seemed mundane. She writes like I personally think, and I can not express just how much I appreciate that.

I did, however, start to drift towards the end as I had in her first book, but not nearly as much. She seamlessly dropped the last chapter like a cloud bomb, bringing everything together nicely but with a great impact. I would read this book again for sure, and I am not generally a re-reader.

I highly recommend this book to anyone, anywhere, at any point in there life, or at any point in book genre phase. It is good for anyone!
