Really enjoyed this. The name dropping seemed annoying till I realized that it was themed around the friendships in her early career. Also with being from an architectural background she went what I call a bit PD Jamesish which annoys me desperately but I just ignored that. With being from a fashion background too the fashion commentaries wore on me :-) (did I say I enjoyed it ? ) but I just ignored that after a while.
Like the skilled journalist she is she kept her audience despite the blips and I've been on the lookout for more of her books ever since. ( )

I read this because I enjoyed Baggage, but this autobiography, focusing on her twenties is not as good. It is supposed to be about friends but it is really a list of who she met and where she went, and seems superficial. Now and again, something of the person comes through, but for the most part, it is dull. ( )
