The author switches back and forth between the reality of the Mitford family based on the various sisters' perceptions and the fictionalized Mitford in Nancy's writing so often that I'm not sure if this was a biography or literary review.

Thompson paints a fully realized portrait of Nancy Mitford, one of the most intriguing women of the 20th Century. Thompson’s writing style befits the story of Mitford. She has a light, often irreverent touch, and brings charm and wit to her subject. Reading this biography is like drinks with a friend while she gives you the backstory on a mutual acquaintance you always wanted to know more about.

The author really liked Nancy and it showed. She did not whitewash the woman but also didn't focus on the negatives. Very enjoyable.
