Publisher's Synopsis:
An uproarious romp through the minefield of female one-upmanship!
Leaving her cheating husband in Boston with the paralegal he impregnated, Pippin Snowe and her son move to a ramshackle farmhouse in the exclusive community of Dover, Massachusetts. Pippin finds employment with a local architect, designing kitchen renovations for wealthy Dover women who treat her as they treat the rest of the hired help. Concluding that social climbing is just another sport that she is no good at, Pippin opens a country club for dogs that offers services that the Dover women didn't know they wanted until they found out that admission was required and spaces were limited.
With irreverent wit, Thin Rich Bitches is a humorous chronicle of one woman's quest to find her place within a community of people who are more blessed physically and financially, while learning valuable lessons about life, love, competition, and canine couture.
My Review:
Thin Rich Bitches was a hilarious rollicking read from start to finish! The book was very well written and laugh-out-loud funny. The plot and the dialogue flowed smoothly together and I liked the author's clever style of writing.
The protagonist, Pippin Snowe, is a survivor who takes the reader on her sometimes crazy journey from Boston to Dover, Massachusetts accompanied by Zeke, her long-suffering son. The characters were relatable and likeable in spite of some of their snooty affectations. I enjoyed the normalcy of Pippin's character by comparison to the spoilt rich women of Dover.
Thin Rich Bitches is a wonderfully irreverent read which I thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend.
