The Engagements

Title: The Engagements
Author: J. Courtney Sullivan

Tells the story of the woman copywriter, Mary Frances Gerety who coined the advertising phrase "A diamond is forever", in 1947. It also explains how much advertising has had to do with a woman receiving a diamond for her engagement (No, it wasn't always so). That said the story revolves around Mary Frances and four others living through different times telling their stories of love, marriage and diamonds. The book was a good read.

Fiction; rated 4 out of 5
