Gentlemen Prefer Blondes by Anita LoosRead about another entry on the list.
Two charming flappers cause mischief across New York, London, and Paris. Written in diary form with clever malapropisms sprinkled throughout and a faux-naïf narrator in Lorelei Lee, nothing bad could ever happen to these women, and that’s a design of their own making.
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is among Jeff Somers's top ten novels that begin “Dear Diary."
