Crazy Love You by Lisa Unger

1.0

I didn't really like this book, and didn't make it all the way through. It felt like the author didn't do much research. For one, the sections of the book that are meant to be excerpts from the protagonist's comics weren't actually in any kind of comic format. It may have been because he wrote and drew his own comics, so he didn't need as much direction, but I can't see him writing a comic script as if it were a book. They're two completely different mediums. I also kind of felt like Unger didn't understand her protagonist very well, even on a very basic level. He was a really stereotypical guy, to an unrealistic degree. He even said "ladies, this is what all men are like" at one point. I'm not a man, but I've always had a lot of male friends, and can tell you that that isn't, actually, what all men are like. It may seem like a strange thing to complain about, but it made him seem really unnatural. He didn't feel like a person, so much as an idea of a person.
