This book aged well and it's a great behind the scenes, fun to read and engrossing.
Some parts reflect the spirit of time and can sound harsh to us but they reflect the time and are part of a realistic picture.

Not my cup of tea. Even if I loved the style of writing and the author can surely write I couldn't connect to the characters and the book fell flat.

It's an entertaining and interesting book, the kind of book that makes you smile and give food for thought as you think that some situations are similar to yours.
