Oh fabulous book! Just at the introduction even a page or two in, I was quivering with joyous anticipation. And then obviously right away the book is splendid and perfect and is going to be devoured without stopping. Thank you Iris for sending me "Invitation to the Waltz"... OMG how is it that I've never read it before? and to think there are more by her.

Don't get too excited. The sequel 'The W3ather in the Str3ets' is on its way to you and is masses of people's (well - womens')favourite but the rest of her books are not really so good. Also she had a major tragedy in later life when her child died and she spent years trying to contact the 'other side' and writing about it.
