Miss Goering and Mrs Copperfield meet at a party, go their separate ways, have various strange little adventures and meet again quite changed from how they'd been originally.

Well, how do I describe this book? It's different. It's a little odd. It's quirky. I did enjoy it, though. According to the preface there was to be another Serious Lady but she didn't get written in, however a small excerpt of what was to be in the book gives a tantalising look at her and I do wish she had been finished, she was a very distracted lady apparently.
