For Love and Money

Leslie Glass Β· 2005
70/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Library Journal called it a winner, and the combination of brokerage-world satire and suburban family chaos is genuinely sharp and funny. Leslie Glass gives her protagonist real warmth without sacrificing the comedy's bite. It won't satisfy readers looking for serious financial fiction or a tight mystery, but as light, smart women's fiction it earns its praise.
