Must Love Dogs
Must Love Dogs | Claire Cook
11 posts | 18 read | 7 to read
First the much-loved novel by New York Times bestselling author Claire Cook. Then the romantic comedy movie adaptation starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. Now MUST LOVE DOGS is a series! "Voluptuous, sensuous, alluring and fun. Barely 40 DWF seeks special man to share starlit nights. Must love dogs." Divorced preschool teacher Sarah Hurlihy's first mistake is letting her bossy big sister write her personal ad. Her second mistake is showing up to meet her first date in more than a decade. Now she's juggling her teaching job, her big, rollicking, interfering south-of-Boston Irish family, and more men than she knows what to do with. And what's up with all these dogs that are suddenly galloping into her life? "A hilariously original tale about dating and its place in a modern woman's life." -BookPage "Funny and pitch perfect." -Chicago Tribune "Wildly witty" -USA Today "Cook dishes up plenty of charm." -San Francisco Chronicle "A hoot" -The Boston Globe "If Must Love Dogs is any indication of her talents, readers will hope that Claire Cook will be telling breezy summer stories from the South Shore of Massachusetts for seasons to come." -The Washington Post "A laugh-out-loud novel . . . a light and lively read for anyone who has ever tried to re-enter the dating scene or tried to 'fix up' anyone else." -Boston Herald "This utterly charming novel by Cook is a fun read, perfect for whiling away an afternoon on the beach." -Library Journal "Claire Cook's Must Love Dogs, a book that's got more giggles than soda bread has raisins." -Hartford Courant "Claire Cook (Must Love Dogs) has built a brand writing light-hearted women's fiction blending kernels of the absurd and comedic in compulsively readable combinations." -Shelf Awareness "The exuberant and charming Claire Cook is one of the sassiest and funniest creators of contemporary women's fiction." -The Times-Picayune The Must Love Dogs series: Must Love Dogs (#1) Must Love Dogs: New Leash on Life (#2) Must Love Dogs: Fetch You Later (#3) Must Love Dogs: Bark & Roll Forever (#4) Must Love Dogs: Who Let the Cats In?

I‘m listening to the audio so it was too tedious to type out the entire quote that includes the recipe but I found it on Claire Cook‘s website. Definitely want to try it sometime! #Foodspiration

When Frank Sinatra started to belt it out, I joined in with a few regrets of my own. Frank‘s cheery attitude was really starting to piss me off.

MayJasper 😂 Great quote! 3y

I was today years old when I found out this was a book.

From earliest childhood and decades before having your colors done was fashionable, my mother had dressed me as a winter. Reds, whites, and blues mostly to complement my pale skin, dark hair, and brown eyes. I thought I looked like an American flag.

@Emiller I am so sorry for your loss. I can only imagine what it would be like to lose someone so close to me. {Hugs}

Here is a pic of my Chewy that I took back in March while we were chilling at my son‘s lacrosse game. He has an ouchie under his eye because he is a spaz and ran into a rose bush. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I sure do love my Chew-Chew Magoo! #LoveforEmiller

Emiller Chewy is adorable! What a great pic with that little bit of tongue stuck out! 🐶❤️. Thank you for sharing! 6y
GypsyKat Beautiful!!! 😍😍😍 6y
AndreaReads Thank you, @Emiller @GypsyKat He is such a sweet dog! We sure do love this handsome boy! 6y

@Emiller this is a picture of my baby Xolo, Millhouse. This picture always makes me smile. He is a 10 year old beast of a dog now. Sending much love and peace to you today ❤️

LiteraryinPA Wowwwwww. I‘ve never seen a puppy look quite like that! 💜 6y
JoScho @LiteraryinLititz lol yes he is quite unusual. (edited) 6y
Bklover Awwww.... would love to see a current photo- you‘ll have to share one with us! 6y

JoScho @Bklover I certainly will. He isn‘t huge-about 15 pounds but very very muscular. He hates having his picture taken though so it is hard to get a good shot of him. 6y
Craftylikefox What a cutie!!! That face melts my heart 😍 6y
JoScho @Craftylikefox I know! He was so little! 6y
ladym30 Such a sweetie! 6y
JoScho @ladym30 thank you. He is a very loving dog and too smart for his own good. 💕 6y

Today I learned that there was a whole series of Must Love Dog books. I liked the movie (probably skewed by John Cusack love) and thought the first book was just ok.

There are six of them! That seems a bit much, but I‘d be lying if I pretended I wasn‘t intrigued 🤷🏻‍♀️

@TaylorMay So sorry for your loss. I‘ve lost a beloved pet before and know how horrible it is. But as requested, here is my boy Max, who apparently didn‘t want me to do yoga, since he made himself comfortable on my mat.

TaylorMay I mean why do yoga when you could have been cuddling him? Max is super cute. And he looks playful as hell. Thank you for the #LitsyLove. My broken heart is filled with love 7y
OriginalCyn620 @TaylorMay Playful is an understatement! Glad the Litsy community is helping you through this rough time. 7y

My reading companions are all excellent snugglers, mooches, and love bugs. Bella, Roscoe, Navybean, and Gatsby all have laid next to me on many a literary journey. 🐾
