Irish Girls about Town...Get Ready to Paint the Town Green!

Maeve Binchy and fifteen more Irish women authors!

I never really thought about American vs. Irish writing styles being so different until I read this book. Some of the stories were great, while others, not so much. My favorites were about women who were "dumped" and hurt by long term boyfriends but then got to reject the same boyfriends in the end!

Irish phrases I like:

bloody well
my flat
watching the telly
we're stint
my best mate
he's such a wanker
a sixpenny look that quelled him
the nutter
