Currently (re-) reading...

this lighthearted & funny book, published many moons ago (in 1986 actually) so a little dated but still worth a space on the bookshelf.....


It's in usual Cooper style (the main characters are Noel and Scarlett O'Aga...) with lots of humorous anecdotes but was, in my humble opinion, written with a certain integrity (before she realised how lucrative it was to turn out a chick-lit pleaser on an annual basis with titles like 'Polo' and 'Riders'.....all with basically the same theme)

Anything to divert my attention from the fact that there are ONLY 11 DAYS TO GO!!!!!!
Happy week before Christmas!.......s
