Review Date: 12/7/2009

This book was an extremely quick read. At first I didn't care much about Hilary's life in New York, interested as I was in the exciting Peace Corps adventure that Kate and her husband were on. But as the book went on I became more and more interested in both of their lives. These women are funny and insightful. I wish that I could write the kind of intricate stories they have in their casual correspondence. Hilary and Kate surprised me with their rich vocabulary and wit.

Quick read, very fun and also useful if you think you'll be moving to Kenya or joining the Peace Corps.
