review 1: This book fit some of the typical chick lit genre formula...average girl has bad luck with guys, meets decent guy, a misunderstanding makes them break up, they get back together. I have a hard time relating to these books because I never was the type of awkward, self doubting girl the genre seems to be in love with. This book was also a tad unrealistic with a girl who had such a high level of OCD and at the end she beats it just with one nasty confrontation with a guy she was barely dating. While I agree that could be a wake up call, the package was too neat...and Ryan was the bland type of chick lit guy that average women fantasize about...also not realistic. But...this type of book isn't really supposed to be realistic, so I suppose it works. There were some funny moment... mores, the quotes at the beginning of each chapter were cool and it was an okay read.
review 2: I enjoy the way Caprice Crane writes because she's so witty and I wish I could be witty like that, but this book was a little tough to get through. I honestly do not think it has anything to do with the writing, it's the plot and the characters. Berry and Ryan got on my nerves the entire book. The only person I kind of liked was the best friend, Natalie. I think this book would be better as a movie, which makes sense because I think Crane has written more screenplays and tv shows then books. less

Things markedly improved when she met Ryan. The chemistry was bitingly funny

Not as good as "Stupid and Contagious" but definitely charming and sweet.
