I remember hearing about Huguette Clark and the battle over her estate a few months ago. It seemed really interesting so I knew that this would be a book worth checking out. I started out really enjoying this book but the further I read it the more my interest in it began to wane. This book covers not only Huguette but also the life of her father. I happened to find her father more interesting than her (he wasn't as much of a recluse as her so he actually went out and did things). Ultimately I grew really annoyed with the people fighting over her estate. On the one hand you have her distant relatives, most who have never met her, and on the other side you have the people who worked for her who took gifts from her which ethically they should not have. It just doesn't seem like either side 100% cared about her (no matter what they say).[I received this book from a Librarything Early Reviewers giveaway. The content of my review is not affected by that.]
