There was absolutely nothing wrong with my shape at the time, and I only stopped wearing one when my boyfriend (later to be first husband) said that wearing a girdle was ridiculous.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-45242983080180650922014-07-20T18:19:43.129+01:002014-07-20T18:19:43.129+01:00We need someone who has worn both!

I think (sweeping generalization) young women will always find a way of showing off their good points, and will always think there's room for improvement, and do what they can to make themselves look better. If only they realized how great they look anyway....Clothes In Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680610242823846662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-2283600119230014472014-07-20T18:04:37.667+01:002014-07-20T18:04:37.667+01:00Spanx.

I have no familiarity with Spanx, but they look like the girdles I wore, except some girdles I think had more rigid pieces across the abdomen. <br /><br />I have got to reread some of the Tibbett books.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-11837634628054525742014-07-20T17:42:53.413+01:002014-07-20T17:42:53.413+01:00Yes I agree with you - and Moyes was a clever, wit...Yes I agree with you - and Moyes was a clever, witty woman, and her books reflect the times she lived in.

At any rate...I really like Tibbetts and his wife Emmy, and their relationship, so I forgive the fact that he doesn't exactly shine in this one. As you say, it's still an engaging story, and I have a soft spot for the kind of detective he is. He's got his faults, but such a refreshing change from the demon-haunted, damaged detectives that are all too common these days.
