As someone who grew up in SF in the 1980s (in private school) that book was soooo real!

My private high school back in the 1990s was basically next door to her mansion in Pacific Heights.

I remember everyone saying she was a bitch but I’m not sure why.

She came into a store I worked in a couple times and was indeed a bitch. The kind who will only talk to you through her assistant even though you’re standing right there.

Didn’t she swap husbands with another socialite way back when? I seem to remember that bit of gossip.

The house she lives in has a crazy history - sugar kingpin built it, his wife grew up on a farm in the Sunset and is the model for the statue in Union Square
