Book Overview

"Kath is curious," observes her younger brother, Ethan, not without anxiety. She is thirteen; already everyone can see she's got her eye on bigger things than provincial Fresno can offer. Years in the glamorous chill of an East Coast prep school will introduce her to a razor-sharp sense of social distinction, cocaine "so good it's pink," and an indispensable best friend-all that she needs to prepare for life in Manhattan.

Great Read

I am an old fart who loves to read and have the time to do so. Well I loved the style, the content and all of it. Refreshing to see a new and talented writer with wit and humor. Keep going Katherine, if you can keep an old guy interested from front to back cover in the adventures of a mid twenties jet setter, just imagine your potential audience. Loved it

Love it!

I can't wait to get back to this book. I started reading it this weekend and it is amazing how it feels like I am talking right to the author. She is witty and real and interesting and it has been a LONG time since a book sucked me in so quickly and had me excited about picking it up again at my first free moment.

Very Interesting Book, Highly Recommended

To be honest, this book is out of my usual genre, I only read it because I was trying to cozy up to a Woman who I noticed was reading it. My tactic failed, the book did not. This author has the ability to lull you into what you think will be a stylistic and breezy read, and then without changing style or demeanor, she somehow drops an anvil on your head. I'd say she has a real talent for communicating life's follies,...
