February 09, 2009: Ms. Rivenbark must channel me...AND my friends. She's smart, quick, and says the things I want to say, or have thought -- am I the ONLY one?!! I guess I'm not! This is one of the very few books I've read in bed that's either had my husband looking at me saying, "WHAT!?" or he's upset because I've woken him up when I couldn't put the book down before turning out the light and burst out giggling or "ha"-ing really, REALLY loudly. It's light, it's smart, it's irreverent (but in the exact same way I'm thinking myself). It's the very first book I grabbed to give to a friend who just had surgery because I KNOW this will make her enjoy the days after surgery, because she will laugh. Thank you, Celia. I've just bought another one of your books ("tramp") and will most definitely buy (and laugh with) the others. You've got yourself a fan. I'd love to do lunch and pick on the current lineup of "stars".
