I read this on my own and I am relieved now that I did as I spent the majority of the time laughing out loud and chuckling away to myself. Mapp and Lucia are back!! This author has done a wonderful job of bringing these two friends back to life in this hilarious,bitchy, sarcastic gem. You cannot get past more then the odd page without running into barbed insults, decorated sweetly, and handed out freely.. The ladies and their gentlemen are in Italy where their snobbishness has reached a whole other level ( perhaps it's the different air ;0) )
While always maintaining a glamorous exterior, both ladies never fail to entertain those around them with their antics and trying to gain one up on each other,neither will stop at any length to outdo the other while they both pretend to be great friends rather then the clear rivals that they are.
There are many opportunities for hilarious things to go wrong ,and that is exactly what happens as they each try and step on one another in the most fashionable heels dahling to be crowned top dog in their circle!!!!
This is a must read for anyone who enjoys a really good giggle.I sincerely hope that we are going to be seeing another book following on from this one by Guy Fraser-Sampson as this one was pure comedy!
