Riley J Ford follows her impressive debut novel, "Into You," with another winner.  "Carpe DiEmily" tells the tale of Emily Keane, an over-organized woman about to lose control over every aspect of her life.Along the way, Emily adopts a neurotic dog that even confounds a dog whisperer, sells her organs to a madman, falls in love with a gay man, and treats a biker bar to a new round of tats. And that ain't even half the story. I mean, most of us have been there ... but it's a brave new world for dear Emily.As is her wont, Ford mixes tons of humor into unpredictable situations to create a unique and rather unforgettable story. I don't know how she does it, but I'm going to suggest that Ford donate her brain to science when her own story is over, so someone can get to the bottom of her madness.The book's description includes the word "zany," and that's the perfect word to describe this tale. Emily's story is zany. It's also well written and quite enjoyable."Carpe DiEmily" is a wonderful read that I highly recommend to YA and humor fans. If you like Christopher Moore, check out Riley J Ford.
