Review: What Looks Like Crazy by Charlotte Hughes

Devon's review of What Looks Like Crazy by Charlotte Hughes
Contemporary fiction released by Jove 26 Feb 08
What Looks Like Crazy is not my usual cup of tea. It's contemporary fiction, heavy on the humor. There are romantic elements to be sure, but the book reminds me more of Chick-Lit than anything else. There's a heroine with a messed up love life, a weird family and friends and an equally kooky professional life. She gets into all manner of ridiculous situations, and indulges in makeovers and retail therapy when she's feeling down.
However, What Looks Like Crazy is much better written than much of the chick lit I've read, with vivid characterization and few shallow clichés. I requested it because I was looking for something different, and this fit the bill.
