Summary: Took me back to the old days
Review: This was a delightful book, especially, if like me, you grew up on Love Comics. I read those probably from around 1958 - 1962. And, like the author said, that's why I'm screwed up about relationships today! Anyway, this book just made me laugh out loud through the whole thing. I especially enjoyed the one where the girl was in secretarial school, but it's been switched to a writing school, and she falls for the teacher. I loved the line of the main female character, "Doesn't she know we're all going to die"? That's what these characters needed to hear 40 years ago! Give up the scholop and get real! LOL I also liked that the author summarized the original plot, to put it into perspective for us. Very, very much fun, and the comics are beautifully copied, especially the men's blue hair, with their floating heads above the women's beds!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious! A Must Buy!
Review: What a great idea! This type of book reminds me of Mystery Science Theater 3000, as the author has rewitten the stories from old romance comics. I rarely laugh out loud at anything, but I couldn't help it, as the author was perfect in making funny lines match the characters expressions. "I Hate My Hair" was worth it alone!
