Excorcising Your Ex is actually quite entertaining. Before I met the man I'm currently married to, I broke had recently broken off a relationship with a crazy man. For those of you that know me you might ask, "Which one?" The one that I met at Grad School. I knew law drew extremists, but I thought that they were simply narcissistic know-it-alls not the kind of extremists that imagine they are incompetition with your cats for attention, that drinking liquor is sin (something discovered after I had spent an evening recovering from final exams by drinking homemade margaritas with one of my finest friends). He was soooo hated by that dearest friend that she attempted to craft an argument in favor of bestiality, while at the dinner table, just to annoy him. He was the kind that calls at 2:30 in the morning after you've broken up just to see if you're home. Anyway, this book isn't going to win the Pulitzer, but it was very entertaining and gave me many a laugh at a time that I wasn't very much in the mood to smile. It includes many amusing anecdotes. Though I have never been quite so distraught about a break up as to committ a post break-up sin, like a "drive-by"--that's where you drive by your ex's to see who he's spending time with or if he's as miserable and alone as you--I have felt the desire to do other stupid things like leave a beligerent drunken message on an ex's answering machine. Just for the record: I haven't ever actually done that. The book is good for laughs and is well-written. ( )
