I loved this book, pure and simple.  The character development was so well done that nothing any of the characters ever did raised the dreaded "why would they do that" question.  Lucy herself is a mousy, loveable single woman who suffers from a combination of poor (or just plain short-sighted) judgment and bad luck.  Perseverance and a few unexpected friends help turn her tale of woe into a tale of wow and you just can't help pulling for her.  The story itself moves at a quick enough pace to keep it moving but not so fast as to cause you to miss important details.  I have already picked up the second book in the Lucy series: "Lucy cracks her head" and can't wait to continue reading about the exploits of my newest, favorite nerdy teacher!
