She's lovely. So easy to read, and so amusing. The "Story" section might seem boring here, but really, it isn't. These books are just totally not about the plot.
I think Rachel is my favourite of the girls. She eccentric in a bit of a different way than McKay's girls are usually eccentric. However, it feels a bit weird to say anything general about "McKay's girls", because they really are quite themselves and no one else.
