Random Bookshelf Reading 89


Random Bookshelf Reading 89

Question:  This week?

Answer:  "Billy didn't hesitate.  Scruples was losing money at an almost incredible rate.  Not that i made the slightest difference to her; she could afford it indefinitely, but the figures would look so embarrassing when they were published in Women's Wear.  It was worse than embarrassing--it was a waking, unending nightmare.  People would laugh at her and the one thing in the world she must never be, never again as long as she lived, was a figure of fun.  She had to turn the operation of Scruples into a success.  Scruples must be faultless." (p.223)

From Scruples by Judith Krantz.
