3.5 stars with the audiobook narration by Michael C. Hall bringing it up to 4 stars.

There is a reason everyone has seen the movie and few have read the book; the language is dated (sometimes in ugly ways—there are a few racist or anti-Semitic terms among other now-offensive terms) and at times crass. But it was a pleasure to meet the original Holly Golightly. Audrey Hepburn really did a masterful job in the film.

For mature readers only.

Holly Golightly is a much seedier character then in the film... and a bit of a racist.

Fun, fast read, and Holly was such an engaging character - I can see why the narrator was taken with her!
