by Jen Lancaster
I finished this one a while ago and never got around to writing about it. Like the others, I enjoyed this one, too! At some point, I will read every book by her.
In this installment, Jen decides she isn't cultured enough and sets out to rectify that situation. She watches movies, reads books, goes to the opera and other live shows (plays, dancing, etc.), as well as partaking in cultural dining. Basically, through any means possible. It all started with her attending function with socialites and having nothing to talk about except what happened on the latest reality show or a 1980s John Hughes movie. And apparently, socialites know nothing about these topics.
I appreciate that she realizes she's not as cultured or as classy as she'd like to be. And at certain events she doesn't feel as though she fits in. Who among us hasn't felt that way at some point? Let's face it, those who think they're classy, do everything to make the rest of us feel like dirt, which in my opinion, isn't very classy...
If you've read other Jen Lancaster books and enjoyed them, I'm sure you will enjoy this one, too.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
