2.0 out of 5 stars Jean would be embarrassed., September 9, 2010
I read all day for a living, so at night, the only thing my poor brain can handle is fluff.

This book is fluff.

The plot is weak and the characters seem cartoon-like. The main character is beaten up by a drunk and then proceeds to make him coffee.

Picture a famous TV personality trying to spend an anonymous morning at a public library, in the Reading Room.
She shows up in a Jean Muir dress, expecting not to be noticed. By anyone.

I do like the way Antonia Fraser writes. You get a full picture, whether you want it or not.

The story bumps along. The ending is silly and disappointing. I did like the cat.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dosn't Hang Together, October 31, 2010
A SPLASH OF RED by Antonia Fraser is a title I picked up because I'd read with interest several of her historical works. Ms. Fraser does not have the special something that makes for a cozy read. The book was dull to the point of boring.
