Kiss Myself Goodbye: The Many Lives of Aunt Munca by Ferdinand Mount

2.0

Thought this book would have been much better than the reviews of it. So much painstaking detail on the familial lineage that it becomes distracting. It was a bit interesting but I got lost with all the different family relationships going on.

At the end, I wondered what was so interesting about the story. Yes it is quite fascinating how one can hide their backgrounds without garnering much attention. I was more interested in the lurid details but there wasn't much of that. Instead we go through painstaking meticulously detailed family tracing, which in my opinion is somewhat boring.
