29. Noel Coward: Private lives
This was the play for July. I've got a bit behind as I've been away. Slight, amusing in places.

A crime novel for my holiday. This got great reviews, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected.

Newbery Winners Proje ... 16 The Private Lives of Pippa Lee by Rebecca Miller. Not bad, not great. Quite liked the beginning and end sections when Pippa is older, and the ending wasn't bad. But disliked the middle section which I found self-indulgent, and hated the character of Pippa as a young woman - what a ... ... Judy

Title: The Private Lives of Pippa Lee
Author: Rebecca Miller
Source: Early Reviewers
Destination: ReadItSwapIt
Classed as: Books I own but won't want to keep after reading
Could also have been classed as: Second time authors
Thoughts: I made it through this book ... Interesting thread! I started in Feb and have had:
Gents
The Private Lives of Pippa Lee
Being Emily
The Story of a Marriage
I haven't got any from those additional sets that sometimes come up, and the last two, a friend of mine who has a similar library got both too, so this time ... Avisannchild, I've received What Every Body Is Saying and today I received The Private Lives of Pippa Lee from Harper Collins Canada's First Look program. 69. The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee by Rebecca Miller. My first ever early reviewer book! Unfortunately, I found it very disappointing - too much focus on the prose style, not enough on the story or the characters. Finished The Private Lives of Pippa Lee and review done. I just posted mine of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee. I had a bit of trouble getting to the 250 minimum word count I'm sure I read about somewhere...
Anyway, enjoyed the process and looking forward to reading more in the future. I am about half way through The Private Lives of Pippa Lee but should get it finished tonight / tomorrow. Anyone else get it? Any thoughts? ... Judy
