A Way to Fill Some Lazy Hours After the Holidays…

Just randomly discovered this author during my last visit to the public library…

She is in her early 30’s and the wife of, as an internet search filled me in, the Hoover vacuum heir, and has quite an interesting biography, but I’ll leave that for you to discover if you so choose…

The point is that her two books are quite a hoot to read…

I found it enjoyable to take a few hours and vicariously live the “exciting” life of Manhattan socialites from the comfort of my Midwestern home…

Where, after reading the exploits and belief systems of these characters, I am very grateful that I choose to live…

Good, pointless reading material that yields a funny little escape from how we, “the real people” live…
