The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark

2.0

---

I'm sure this has literary value but I hated it. It reads like poetry, not in a good way. I will never be able to hear anyone talk about someone "in her prime" again without thinking of this book, since that phrase is in there about 5000 times. Urgh. Miss Brodie is unconventional but not in a fun Mary Poppins way, in a Fascist way. Literally.
