Brilliant ...,
By
This review is from: Must Love Dogs (Mass Market Paperback)
I really enjoyed this novel. The characterisation is brilliant, and I was sad to close the final page and leave the characters behind. Don't expect a complex, thrilling story, but if you're looking for a light-hearted romantic comedy, this is for you. Chic fic at its best. Can't wait to see the film.

As Much Fun as a New Puppy,
By Mamalinde "mamalinde" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Must Love Dogs (Mass Market Paperback)
Laugh out loud funny, this book is as much fun as a brand new puppy (without the messy cleanup and chewed up shoes). Claire Cook takes us on a life journey with Sarah Hurlihy, 40 year old divorcee, pre-school teacher, and member of a large, wild and rowdy Irish American family. In her first foray into the world of personal ads, Sarah manages to select a Mr. Right who is none other than her own widowed father. Will she have any better luck when her sound-alike sister writes a personal ad for Sarah, and records a voice message? The importance of family relationships and the dysfunction of same glows through every single page in this delightful and frothy little book. Fun, uplifting, and insightful, I highly recommend this charming book.

Pretty bad,
By Invisible Moth 814 "jdm" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Must Love Dogs (Paperback)
I wasn't spurred to see the movie. While I'm familiar with the Irish Boston area family (being originally from that area myself, and then having spent a fair amount of time around the Irish from Ireland), and while "Must Love Dogs" got that pretty right, the rest of the story...well, really didn't get anything right. Usual tale of failure: flat characters, boring narration, trite humor, dull plot points. Don't give this one a try.

Great beginning - flat ending,
By Maureen E. Eustis - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Must Love Dogs (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved the beginning and middle of this book. I began to think I didn't want it to end because it was so entertaining. I thought the writing was honest, and clever. But toward the end I realized I didn't have a clear opinion as to what a "happy ending" would be. When it did end, I didn't know if the ending was the best case scenario for the main character, whom I'd come to adore. I felt her love interest's character and appeal was underdeveloped and I was left wishing for better for her... and me! Besides that, I loved the humor and honesty that shone through the rest of the book. I wish I could have written a better ending for it though.
