How to Be a Party Girl

By: Pat Montandon

Narrated by: Elizabeth Helitzer

In this delicious, practical, and efficient guidebook, Pat Montandon - queen of California's jet set - tells every party giver how to become a great hostess and give unforgettable parties. Esquire magazine chose Pat as one of the 19 best hostesses in the United States. It is Pat Montandon's conviction that anyone, regardless of circumstances (i.e. income), can be an outstanding hostess and party giver.

Self-confidence gained by being a good hostess can create a completely new world, especially for the unmarried girl, who may want to enlarge her circle of friends and therefore her opportunities to meet the right man. It's also important for the married woman who wants to be something other than just a housewife.

No kidding. This book is not a good-grief-let-someone-else-try-it come-on that no lady would follow. It is an immensely useful book that explains the makings of a party people remember, even if you start out not knowing anyone and your bank account registers almost zero: taste, imagination (Pat has plenty of both and is willing to share), hard work, plus a genuine love of people.

According to Pat (who arrived in San Francisco a few years ago, a shy little girl from the Southwest), liking people and being considerate of their feelings is the cornerstone of social success. People enjoy good company. They like to have fun. So, you don't have to break the bank to entertain well.
