The Nanny Diaries by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus

Oh yes, this was unmitigated fluff, though I did enjoy it.

The Nanny Diaries describes the experience of a nanny working for an family in New York. My question is, are there really people who live such materially-rich and relationally-shallow lifestyles? They probably feel sorry for me in my rural domestic life, and I feel sorry for them in their friendless marriages.

I would count this as beach reading, and as such, it is a good one. Entertaining and not sullied by gratuitous sex.

    Sometimes it is good to read something light and entertaining. I have been curious about it, thanks for the review.

    I've had this on my book shelf for about 2 years. I've just finished a bunch of "heavy" books, so when I saw your review, I knew this would be the perfect light fluffy read for me! Just started it!
