Anyone But You

De: Jennifer Crusie

Narrado por: Susan Ericksen

For Nina Askew, turning 40 means freedom - from the ex-husband whose career always came first, from their stuffy suburban home. Freedom to have her own apartment in the city, freedom to focus on what she wants for a change.... And what she wants is something her ex always vetoed: a puppy. A bouncy puppy to cheer her up. Instead she gets...Fred.

Overweight, smelly, and obviously suffering from some kind of doggy depression, Fred is light-years from perky. But for all his faults, he does manage to put Nina face-to-face with Alex Moore, her gorgeous, younger downstairs neighbor.

Alex looks great on paper - a sexy, seemingly sane, surprisingly single E.R. doctor who shares Fred's abiding love for Oreos - but a 10-year difference in age, despite his devastating smile, is too wide a gap for Nina to handle.

Ignoring her insistent best friend, some interfering do-gooders, and the ubiquitous Fred - not to mention her suddenly raging hormones - Nina thinks anyone but Alex would be a better bet for a relationship. But the more silver-haired stiffs she dates, the more she suspects it's the young dog-loving doctor she wants to sit and stay!

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Considered by many to be a romantic comedy classic....the novel is given a note-perfect reading by Susan Ericksen....Also worthy of note: the upbeat, jazzy score." ( AudioFile)

No one but you...

Just as amazing as all other Jennifer Crusie books. The performance was a little slow, but audible makes that easy by being able to speed it up, thank you. This was one of my more recent Crusie books purchases, and I love it. I have the paperback version, in which I first bought/read it and now I’ve heard it too. Zany characters, dogs and food, what’s better than that? That’s just one element of Jennifer Crusie books that I love apart from the 30 something women that strong men fall for.

Another fun book by Ms. Cruisie

I enjoy all of Ms. Cruisie's books, and this was no exception. it's so nice to have a romance that's about a mature woman.

The narrator's voice is reminiscent of Nina Totenberg, who reports on the U.S. Supreme Court for NPR. Pleasant enough in short reports, but painful for the length of a book.

Jennifer Crusie knows how to have fun

I had read "Fast Women" because is was on sale and very entertaining. So I thought I would try another by this author. what a great story with lots of laughs.
The narrator did a great job. I understand that some of the narrators for Ms Crusie books are not as enjoyable. I suggest a listen before purchasing.
I enjoyed this one very much and recommend

Love Fred

Her minor characters always support the story. I love how she uses movies and books and music in her books.

So fun!

Enjoyed every minute of this story, and of course it’s all Susan Ericksons fault.
Don’t get me wrong the story itself was funny, sweet and relevant but, the right narrator is everything.
