A review by wistyallgood
D.V. by Diana Vreeland
4.0
I haven't read a book in so long due to lack of time, which is pretty unfortunate. This was a fun one, and hopefully will help get me back on the reading horse.
Diana Vreeland is a freaking character. She's vain and self-centered and likable and smart and name-drops like it's her job. This felt like a I was having a lunch date with Diana and she rambled on and on, but there was something so endearing about that!
Yes, the egotism seemed to result in extreme exaggeration, insertion of herself into every historic moment ever, and a sort of occasionally frustrating rejection of anything serious. (Like, she wrote about the Nazi's underwear and Hitler's mustache, and that was basically it.)
This was also such grand leap from my world; loved getting an inside scoop into that high society world. A good read, for sure.
