Negative Positive
Title: not as fun or witty as her earlier books
Review: Jill Churchill's "House of the Seven Mabels" seems to be a little lacking in her usual ingredients of tongue-in-cheek humor and enjoyable fun. The book will divert you for a couple of hours, and you will enjoy the characters of Jane and her friend Shelley, wives and mothers whose children are getting more independent, but more satisfying mystery fare is to be found in Churchill's earlier works.
