Forget About It




Forget About It: 10 oz

I became a huge fan of Caprice Crane after reading "Stupid and Contagious". I went so far as to write her a little note letting her know how much I loved the book. The same day I sent her the email, I got a long response back from her and an invite to a book signing. Caprice Crane is not only a fantastic and original author, but she's also friendly with her fans.

I loved "Forget About It". One thing that Caprice Crane does that I love so much is throw in pop culture references. I loved the fact that Jordan just happened to see "Regarding Henry" right before her car accident. I don't know how many people got that reference, but I felt so good that I did! I also loved that Jordan named her cockroach. That has been a running gag in my family for years (I've named intruding mice, and once a skunk). Caprice's characters are so easy to like (and hate.... Dirk!), and they remind you of your own friends and family.

I'm eagerly awaiting the third book from Caprice Crane. I know she will not disappoint and she will definitely entertain.
