The Fashion Committee by Susan Juby
- A light-hearted, fun read. Juby writes with skill and humour about difficult subject matter.
- Charlie Dean is ABsolutely FABulous. Charlie’s got chutzpah… but does make some pretty crappy decisions along the way. John is less likeable but realistically portrayed nonetheless.
- This book is both a love letter to fashion (and the arts in general), but also to Vancouver! Another love letter to a city.
- The ending is one place this book really stands out. Nothing is tied up neatly with a bow. Life is messy after all.
