Read in June, 2010

The book and the movie are among my favorites, and I'm a huge fan of old Hollywood, but I was disappointed that this wasn't as dishy as it could've been. A fast, fun read (I read it in less than 2 days, and I'm usually a pretty slow reader), probably essential for any fan of Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's also an interesting depiction of the slow evolution of the portrayal of sexual women on screen in the 1950s.
