Thanks Charlene. I'm in, and will probably start reading at the beginning of September.
I'm in, and will shoot for starting at the same time. I'm looking forward to this read.
I'm going to finish a few books and hopefully start this next week--my reward. :-)
That's perfect, Kathleen. I need to clear three myself.
Hmm, this is an intriguing book (but shouldn't one read it in April?)! ;-)

That is an adorable picture. I'm still reading this in September though ... :-)
I started the Penguin Classics version. The Intro by Brenda Bowen was wonderful --factual, gossipy, just perfect. I am exhausted but will start the book itself tomorrow.

I was sad to find my copy has no intro. :-( But I found it online:https://www.waterstones.com/blog/redi...
So glad you mentioned it, Carol--great stuff. I love the connection with Bridget Jones and especially with Absolutely Fabulous! I can see both of those, just from having read her memoir.
Oh boy--this should be fun. I'll start this weekend sometime.
I will probably finish this in the next few days.If you haven't read it yet, I think maybe Haaze was right after all, that it should be read in April. Well, not necessarily April, but it needs to be read on vacation--on a luxurious holiday, where the slow pace fits right in. At this time of year, when life tends to be speeding up, it doesn't really fit.
I am still really enjoying it though. I love her writing!
