Beth Harbison is yet another favorite author of ours with previous unforgettable books such as
Shoe Addicts Anonymous
and
Secrets of a Shoe Addict,
total
guilty pleasures! And so we just cannot pass up her newest book called
Thin, Rich, Pretty.
But first, let's take a look at what others are saying about it:
"Thin, Rich, Pretty is the story of three women who believe that happiness is the next dress size down, the next dollar figure up, or the next appreciative glance from a stranger. But mostly it’s the story of how three women save each other, and show each other the path to true contentment. Told with Beth Harbison’s knack for thirty and fortysomething nostalgia, and heartwarming humor, Thin, Rich, Pretty will strike a chord with any woman who has ever got on the scale, looked in the mirror, or the bank, and said, 'if only…'" - the Publisher

And that it wasn't the ring, it was the chain that was the important link.
