Bright and funny: haute couture chick lit -- Candace Bushnell Perfectly pitched - playful, funny, satirical and sweet. I laughed out loud many times -- Anna Wintour * Vogue * Plum Sykes knows her world, skewers it, and serves it up as murder. Delicious -- Delia Ephron Sykes has a distinctive, wily and well-deployed comic voice ... Into the blender go Bridget Jones, Anita Loos, Sex and the City and Clueless; out comes a diabolically amusing concoction * New York Times * A masterpiece: never has intelligence been so wickedly dark, on-point and outright funny. It's also full of lightly worn wisdom and the best kind of 'I'd always thought but never managed to think it so clearly' psychological insight. I'm full of awe and admiration -- Alain de Botton Terrific fun and really clever! -- Katie Fforde Plum Sykes channels Nancy Mitford and Holly Golightly with great charm and sweetness -- Jane Green An absolute hoot * Independent * Smart, stylish and fun ... Beautifully written and deliciously moreish from start to finish * Independent *
