Well, despite my first full week of work since summer started, the continuing very HOT weather here in RI, and two days of birthday celebration for Auntie C...I am on track for my weekly read this week.
This week I read Bad Heir Day by Wendy Holden. It's a fairly typical chick-lit type book. A light read about Anna, a struggling writer, whose heir-to-a-sewage-fortune boyfriend gives her the boot...leading her to take a job as an "assistant" to a romance novelist. The job turns out to be a nanny position...and the plot goes on from there.
I had a hard time connecting with any of the characters - they all sort of rubbed me the wrong way. I kind of felt like they all got what they deserved. The ending was a bit too neat for me...everyone's loose ends very tidily tied up...not my favorite read lately.
Next week: Object Lessons by Anna Quindlen...recommended to me by Mom
