The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie: Perennial Classics Edition
by Spark, Muriel
OH BOY !It's about time I read this. I'm glad I haven't yet seen the movie starring Maggie Smith, because this book is tense with plot. Even though Spark gives us plenty of clues toward the inevitable outcome, this page-turner keeps you riveted.
