Of Plumber's Nieces and Amish Daughters

I read this after reading a NY Review of Books article about the director of the movie version. It is by the writer of the children book series The Rescuers but she also wrote many adult novels too. It is somewhat low key but has a tongue in cheek and is overall fun while having a diverse cast. Nice read with so much **** happening. Meanwhile, The Night They Raided Minsky's was good too, especially as a loving recreation of the world of 1920s burlesque.
