excellent book
Is it the dialogue of the book that makes it so good?
Let me just say that it is 6 a.m. in the morning. I have a LOT of work to do at our business today, which will be rather difficult as I HAVEN'T BEEN TO BED BECAUSE I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT reading, &quot;Bet Me&quot; by Jennifer Crusie.  For the first time in a LONG time, I could not put the book down!I think that it is a crime to have the Spotlight Review rating this only 2 stars!!  It is one of the BEST books that I have read all year.  I guess that everyone is different, but I can't believe that we were reading the same book.Jennifer Crusie's books ALL have great dialogue, but sometimes her previous books seemed just a little too &quot;dysfunctional&quot; in a witty kind of way.  Even though &quot;Bet Me&quot; has its strange moments, it is a captivating book.The dialogue completely submerged me into the characters. The entire time I was reading it, I thought, &quot;My God - that is exactly what people would say.&quot;  It wasn't canned or stilted- it was funny, but more believable than any dialogue I think that I have ever read.I hope that Jennifer Crusie will write more books like this. What is truly a shame though is that the first reviewer's views are far from the majority opinion of this book. Sadly, that is what too many people will look at.  This really is a book worth buying.  I loved the characters and especially liked the addition of the last chapter.Excellent, excellent book.
