I pre-ordered Jennifer Crusie & Bob Mayer's Wild Ride, and it was a nice surprise when it popped up on my Kindle.

I was a little concerned, because I'd read in Crusie's blog (www dot arghink dot com) that it's not a romance -- and while I read plenty of books that aren't romances, I wasn't sure that was what I wanted from Crusie. Crusie herself was (is?) concerned this will be a problem for her loyal readers.

But I needn't have worried -- the ways in which it failed to be a romance were all improvements on the genre, IMHO. There were several passages I had to jump up and read to RM, because they were hilarious, and also I sat up way past my bedtime to finish it, and both of those are signs of a good book.
