Searching for Grace Kelly by Michael Callahan
(161 pages read of 399)
"For a
small-town girl with big-city dreams, there is no address more glamorous
than New York's Barbizon Hotel. Laura, a patrician beauty from Smith,
arrives to work at Mademoiselle for the summer. Her hopelessly romantic
roommate, Dolly, comes from a working-class upstate town to attend
secretarial school. Vivian, a brash British bombshell with a disregard
for the hotel's rules, rounds out the trio of friends. Together, the
girls embark on a journey of discovery that will take them from the
penthouse apartments of Park Avenue to the Beat scene of Greenwich
Village to Atlantic City's Steel Pier -- and into the arms of very
different men who will alter their lives forever. "
Makes Sex and the City look like an in-depth character study. The book could have been so much more than it was.
