The Girl in White Gloves by Kerri MaherMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
Wanted to like this book but there was no depth to the plot or the characters. Every aspect, including the totally fictional voice of Grace Kelly was superficial. It was like reading the old tabloid exposes of her comings and goings with none of the breathless, lively writing of the gossips. Sad to think this book will probably sell because of its purported basis on Kelly's life. Its an average novel about a skeleton of a main character that would probably not grab much attention without that connection. Perhaps her affairs should have been more exploited in these days of Shades of Gray. Might have made it more interesting. Readers would be better served to read one of the biographies that are out there.
