Titres dans Amitié

Meet Harriet. But don't be surprised if she isn't interested in meeting you. Harriet has life all figured out, and she doesn't hesitate to inform others of their shortcomings. Though her attempts to become president of the homeowner's association failed, that doesn't stop her from berating "off-leash-dog-man" or reporting the neighbor who had the audacity to leave their Easter decorations up an entire week past the holiday. The problem is, unbeknownst to her, Harriet's rigid rules and judgmental opinions are not her own.
