Cute peak into a day in the life of a 'straight laced" lady who surprises herself when she finds herself in the employ of a woman whose morals and lifestyle contrast greatly with her own. An easy read . . .made me laugh out loud!

Mostly, "day" novels are depressing ie. Mrs Dalloway. After watching the hours, a friend reccomended this book. I must admit, it was just as rewarding as Reading Mrs Dalloway, but it was funnier.

What an absolutely delightful read! It's marvelously refreshing to have a proper lady do properly unladylike actions and still remain proper! Despite risqué scenes, shocking behaviours and an imbroglio of relationships, this book remains…
