Itty Bitty Book Review: "Cakes and Ale"

"Cakes and Ale" by W. Somerset Maugham

Surprisingly I haven't read any Maugham I don't think.  I know, a great lack and I do recall our bookclub reading "Of Human Bondage" but I think I was travelling.   This is one of our 50 cent books we pick up at either the library or a local thrift shop (amazing how many good books they get in) and I really enjoyed it although I'm sure it doesn't come up to his greatest works.  Makes good fun of writers and the class system and Rosie is a delightful heroine.
