Not bad. Nothing terribly profound or intricate, but relatively interesting even if somewhat predictable. The Dorothy Parker character is colourful, even if the idea of the poltergeist somewhat idealistic and convenient. The main characters have enough depth, though Nora was more naive or single-sighted than I would have liked. the book kept my attention well enough for what it is.

This novel provides a heart-warming story enlivened with witticisms from the ghost of Dorothy Parker. The main character, a shrinking violet movie critic, picks up a book at the Algonquin that unleashes the ghost of Dorothy Parker who then begins to get involved in Violet's life. The idea is clever and well-executed. The flow of the book is also noteworthy. Although I was afraid it would be just a form of chick lit, I found myself enjoying the book.
