A Surrey State of Affairs, by Ceri Radford

Well, this was a bit of a mess- it really read like 2 books in one. The first half was a bit of a straight-up modern take on Diary of a Provincial Lady, which I do adore, but didn't translate very well to now, and the second half (well, really it came too late, more like the last quarter) was a wonderful finding-yourself kind of thing, that didn't match well with the first bit. I wish it had gone one way or the other- preferably, the other.
