Murdering Mr. Monti

Review submitted by Pamela Rice Hahna

Murdering Mr. Monti
by Judith Viorst

Brenda, a thrice-weekly advice columnist, plots to off Mr. Monti because of his threat to her favorite son. (Mr. Monti doesn’t approve of Brenda’s son dating his daughter, so forget any chance of him marrying her.)

The way Brenda rationalizes her behavior throughout the book is hilarious. The timing of her self-justified indiscretions adds precious touch(es). One of the best good times, just for an escape, books I’ve read in the last couple of years.

A devilish, delightful farce.

The book is funny. I loved it.
