Behaving Badly - Isabel Wolff

Title: Behaving Badly Author: Isabel Wolff Genre: Chick-lit Rating: 9/10 # pages: 325 Date read: June, 2008

Summary: For animal behaviorist Miranda Sweet, pets beat people -- paws down -- and she's convinced that animals are sweeter, softer and a lot more predictable than the men she's been dating lately. So when she opens up her own animal clinic, she decides to focus on the species she understands, and forget about trying to fathom the murky depths of the male psyche.

While schizophrenic schnauzers and confused canaries are benefiting from her professional ministrations, her best friend Daisy is convinced that Miranda needs a little therapy, as well. Enter dishy photographer David. Even Miranda begins to think she may have been just a tad hasty in her analysis of men, and she finds herself reconsidering her position.

But just as she lets her guard down, her own past reappears, and Miranda must come to terms with the fact that she hasn't always been as sweet as she'd like to believe...

Review: A very charming book about love, secrets and forgiveness. Perfect for a lazy Sunday I finished it in one sitting (well... two - I had to stop for lunch) and found it just as enjoyable as Rescuing Rose... possibly more, actually, as I loved reading about Miranda's work as a pet psychiatrist. Her experiences with the different pets (and especially their owners) were just priceless.
