Pearls in Vinegar: The Pillow Book of Heather Mallick

This was a fun book to read. It's an almost blog-like collection of thoughts and anecdotes by Globe and Mail columnist Heather Mallick. It's a friendly format and quite an enjoyable read. It could have used a bit less name-dropping of foreign cities and brand names of luxury goods, but apart from the name-dropping I really like her writing style - it's what I strive for and fail to achieve here every day.
