Not what I expected when I picked it up, but surprisingly fun anyways. But I've always been loved mythology.Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.5 stars... I loved this book! It had earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP. This was excellent, for what it is, which is to say, a romantic paranormal, um, romp. I hate the word romp but this book, like most of Jennifer Crusie's books, is just that. It's hilariously funny, the dialogue is quick and sharp and witty and the cheerfully improbable thesis (ancient Mesopotamian temple complete with less than perfectly omnipotent deities survives intact in present day Ohio) is never taken too seriously. Anyway. I keep plugging Jennifer Crusie and here I am again - if what you want from a book is just to leave this world for a while, then she is your woman. These books are literary candy and I like candy. This one is really excellent candy, too, none of your year old candy corn trotted out from a warehouse for October here.
Do You like book Dogs And Gooddesses (2000)?
Wasn't Crusie's greatest but led me to read the other authors.
