At the time, I didn't walk away thinking "Oh! that was a great book!" but the more I think about it, the more I realize that points in that book pop into my head on a regular basis. She's funny and a great storyteller - it's a great read! <br /><br />(And, she's a keynote at the Pennsylvania Governor's Conference for Women this year!)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867378549896856568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451084135153101125.post-6163730040689049432011-08-10T09:41:25.438-04:002011-08-10T09:41:25.438-04:00cupcake-

Mad Men is also one of my favs - and you would have time to catch up before season 5 next spring. It might not be your thing, but, I'd be remiss if I didn't suggest The Wire. Not your classic "costume drama" though. :)Steve S.noreply@blogger.com
