The title intrigued me and the book was free, so I thought, why not...In fact I did quite enjoy the story; it was a short, simple, pacey, easy-to-read story that was escapist and fun. It reminded me of the kind of stories I used to write at school.The improbably named, multi-talented 'Phred' flees to New York after being dumped by feckless boyfriend, Finbar.  She hurtles from one amazing success story to another, collecting highly desirable admirers en route.  If you can suspend disbelief (and surely we can all do that) during this quick read, what's not to like in that premise?If I'm honest, I wouldn't have bought this book (I doubt I would ever have known about it), but for a free download, it would be mean to criticise it too heavily.  I'm sure younger readers will really enjoy its good, clean, harmless fun.
