Vinegar Girl by Anne Tyler

Did you like Kiss Me Kate or Pygmalion, The Taming of the Shrew or My Fair Lady?
This is a rebelling set in modern day by an amazing author Anne Tyler.  This is the story of a lost young woman who is stuck in a preschool job that she's not really great at, has no social life and lives with her distracted scientist father.  He needs her to marry his lab assistant so that thhe assistant can stay in America.  There is really not much more to the story than that.  It was cute and light and a really quick read.  Perfect to throw in your beach bag.  This is part of a series of books by contemporary authors retelling the works of Shakespeare.   I will be seeking out the authors.
