First off, I had expected this to be more old-fashioned, but it contained things about what to do if you cheat or are caught in flagrante. There's nothing wrong with that, I'm sure plenty of people need tips about those sorts of things, but I am definitely still in the market for a more vintage etiquette book. Also, the author mentioned what to do if someone spontaneously does a line of drugs at your party...I just can't see the kind of people who buy etiquette books hosting parties where that goes down. From the section about office politics, I thought this was for adults.Other reviewers have mentioned that it covers a wide variety of topics (from meeting Royalty to planning a weekend with your boyfriend) and is very well-written, so I won't bore you with that information again. I did really like the section about conversation, lots of people will tell you to make everyone comfortable, avoid politics and religion etc, but this book was unique in that it sort of acknowledged that you might be faced with bad conversationalists, and listed strategies for people who were arrogant and cocky, or who didn't speak, etc.Also, the author's liberal sprinkling of nota bene with little tips throughout was really great. I definitely won't be needing all of the advice given in this book (I'm 19, so announcing my engagement is fairly far afield), but I think this is useful stuff to know.Basically, I'm not entirely sure I'm going to implement the majority of this book's advice, but I certainly enjoyed reading it, and I will definitely keep the tips in here in mind as I navigate my life. I would recommend this to any woman.Oh, one another thing, I think this is geared towards British people, just so you know. I had kind of been suspecting that, because the author frequently mentioned embarrassing people into modifying their behavior, or what to do in awkward situations (which, to me, would never be considered awkward or embarrassing to anyone I know), and then the author said not to say certain things that weren't appropriate anywhere east of New York, and they sounded fine to me. Not that that is a bad thing, of course, but in case you're living in a country with very specific regional customs, you should know I think the author had British people in mind when she wrote this.
