Bleh.

I’m in No Mood for Love features goody goody Clare Wingate and her rebound from an engagement to a man who may or may not have been gay. Lucky for uptight Clare, her mother’s servant’s son, a wild, globe-trotting reporter, is in town.

Sometimes predictability is OK, as long as the writing is good and the characters are interesting. In this case, neither is true. In this case, Gibson turned to cliches to piece together a story we’ve all heard before.

Read only if you’re desperate.

The Cinderella Deal focuses on Link, a stuffy professor, and his quest to land a coveted job at a prestigious college in Ohio. To do this, he needs a fake fiance; enter Daisy, a broke artist.

The Cinderella Deal is pretty predictable, but like all of Jennifer Crusie’s books, it’s still enjoyable. Her character development is spot on – I wanted to punch Linc and ask Daisy to be my bestie.

The Cinderella Deal is a quick, light read. Two thumbs up.
