Well, as usual the gender politics are a little disturbing ("she began to understand the responsibility of being an attractive woman"--really??) but also as usual I couldn't put it down and found myself missing it once I finished. Pretty much your standard Nevil Shute experience.

Jenne Yeah, there is a whole society's worth of attitudes about women in that one sentence, isn't there.
