The American Heiress (Take Two)

The opening pages of The American Heiress struck a familiar cord, and the nagging feeling that I'd read this all before increased until I could help but search this blog and discovered that, in fact, I had read this book two-and-a-half years ago. My verdict at the time? "Utterly forgettable, but also completely harmless." I was clearly on the money, for neither my own words, nor the many online reviews jogged my memory sufficiently for me to recall any of the details. I suppose I could have continued reading and been enlightened anew, but why spend my time reading for a second time a book I've already declared forgettable?
