Tha Nancy Mitford Omnibus by Nancy Mitford (1956)

Since the Mitford Murders was based on this real person and family, I though I would read something of what Nancy Mitford wrote. I only started reading"the Pursuit of Love" the first of three pieces in this omnibus. I found it very similar to the recent Jessica Fellowes book - a similar household with many children, where the girls are looking at who they are going to marry and lie about going to sleep over a girlfriend's house, but go to a dance instead. Fellowes does add in the mystery element, which made that book more engaging. I don't have a problem not finishing a book and don't regret picking this one up and glad that it was in our library.
