Oh my goodness... how does one write a review for a piece of text so bursting at the seams with all sorts of goodies as this novel is? On the surface, it appears to be a boring little account of a boring woman getting ready for throwing a boring snobbish party at the end of the depicted day, with ...
I enjoyed this book immensely. And though I must have read it before (in high-school), I didn't remember anything about it.
