Not quite as good as I had hoped (no coffee-spitting through the nose as I experienced with "Bridgett Jones' Diary") but still amusing.
Mostly, I left the book feeling terribly sad for the boy in whom was the Nanny's chrge.
Also, I was annoyed that the protagonist's name was "Nanny." I did not get the feeling that this for a literary purpose, but that was the character's -intended- name. Really, it's a terrible name for an adult woman, especially when it is also one's title.
Rate: 7/10
