General impressions: Biting, clever, sharp writing. A plot in which life imitates art, instead of vice versa. Characters that were not really sympathetic, in either action or thought.

I enjoyed it, and would read more of her works. I saw The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie on the stage years ago and enjoyed it, as well. Sparks is now on my TBR list.
