All that with great humor and the innocent insistence of puppies. This story is so delicious, so funny, so warm, that one engages on the first page and still wants more on the last. A truly joyful read."
-Jeanne Ray
Eat Cake, Step-Ball-Change,Julie and Romeo
"Sarah Hurlihy is an endearing heroine who manages to deal with her wacky family, her preschoolers, and her search for the perfect man and the perfect pooch with warmth, wit and wisdom. I found myself rooting for her from page one. Must Love Dogs is a must read for the summer."
- Caroline Preston
Lucy Crocker 2.0, Jackie by Josie

- Tom Perrotta
Joe College, Election
"Reading Claire Cook's Must Love Dogs is like sitting down with a close friend -- a really entertaining close friend. Its heroine will strike a familiar chord in any woman who's been through a divorce, dusted herself off, and ventured back into the dating jungle. Funny and quirky and honest."

- The Washington Post
" 'Eternally hopeful book reviewer seeks wildly witty novel on singles scene/personal ads. Stylish prose and sense of humor preferred. Looking for fun, not longterm entanglement. Must love readers.' Respondents to such an ad might include Claire Cook, whose new novel, Must Love Dogs, tells the story of a down-to-earth divorcee seeking companionship through the personals. . ."
- USA Today
"Claire Cook's "Must Love Dogs," a book that's got more giggles than soda bread has raisins."
-Hartford Courant
"This utterly charming second novel by Cook (Ready to Fall) is a fun read, perfect for whiling away an afternoon on the beach."
- Library Journal
"In an age when whiny novels about 30-something "singletons" whose sole goal in life seems to be snagging a decent man, Must Love Dogs is a refreshing antidote. . . .Reading about Sarah Hurlihy's travails is like talking to a comedic, self-deprecating friend. Cook's humor breezes through the pages as she details the perils -- and perks -- of plunging back into the dating scene."
- Book Page
"Cook employs just enough glibness and smarty-pants humor to make this tart slice-of-the-single-life worth reading."

BookSense 76 Top Ten Summer Paperback Quote:
"This book has one of the funniest first chapters I've ever read, and the hilarity mounts from there. A recently divorced preschool teacher is reentering the dating scene at the behest of her large, Irish-Catholic family, who try to set her up with someone . . . anyone. Zany, colorful characters and a plot with a Murphy's Law kind of inevitability make this a great, fun read."
Jill Miner, Saturn Booksellers, Gaylord, MI
BookSense 76 Hardcover Quote:
"This book is laugh-out-loud funny! A divorced preschool teacher is completely endearing as she tries to understand the dating scene, a place she's not been for many a year. Mix in an eccentric Boston-Irish family, a few dogs, and some questionable men, and you are swept up in a madcap romp."
