Alright, I went 27% of the way though Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll before I gave up on it. While I have no issue with female protagonists (just look at my read lists), I could not like this one. Too much analysis of high fashion, the perils of wearing the wrong thing; living beyond all one's means to make oneself appear more wealthy and important than one is. And while I assume there is some suspenseful, possibly murderous revelation coming up soon, it wasn't soon enough to justify me slogging through the vitriolic, gossipy, backstabbing first-person narration.

So, I'm back to Cherryh: Chanur's Legacy.
