Default Drive Me Crazy-The Review of Eric Jerome Dickey's new book

Ok...So me being the loyal EDJ fan I am i went out and purchased his new novel...

Hmm I read it in 2 days...

I must say that if u didnt like Thieves Paradise...I'm not too sure if you'll like DRIVE ME CRAZY...

Many of u may not know the plot of this story....Ex-con....rich woman...ransom...sex...fights..revenge.

I personally enjoyed the book....Though its not one of his bests...if you are looking to a Cheaters..or The Other Woman typa story this is FAR from it...

But if you do want to read it..and u are an advid EDJ fan like i am..I suggest you read Thieves Paradise and Naughty or Nice again to brush up on a few characters...I will say this is the one novel where characters from his old books show up and have a large role in the story..which kind of shocked me.

All in All I can't tell you too much about the book w/o giving it away..I WILL say that this novel is BETTER then Thieves Paradise...far more action..and will have u reading so fast to find out who...what and when.

I wouldnt buy this book if u are not an extreme EDJ fan..you might be disappointed...but if u are an extreme EDJ fan...go buy it as soon as possible and add it to the collection...

Hope this helped :P

Yeah I'm going to read the book as soon as I'm done with the Da Vinci Code. I have it on its way in the mail, but since the library got it to me first, I'm sending the one in the mail back.

Mayn I read that bad boy the other day. I loved it. I think it's better than Liar's game but not as Cheaters. Hey have any of y'all ever heard of this new author called Mister Mann Frisby? I just read his debut book. It was a little rough but it was pretty good. Try it out.

This guy at Barnes and Noble told me it wasn't as good as his other books and I should wait to get it on paper back, but the library just bought so I'm gonna get it later in the week. 8)
