I didn't think that I would like this book but I enjoyed it. Alexandra Lebenthal, ex-bond babe (and I don't mean the films, I mean muni bonds), socialite and New York Social Diary editor, weaves a clever story about trials and tribulations of Wall Street wives as they deal with private school admissions, cheating hedge fund husbands and the collapse of Lehman Brothers. The tidy ending is certainly contrived but the book is worth reading for the description of the characters alone.
