This title is the UK version of The Great Husband Hunt. Same book, different title. I did enjoy the book.

The main character, Poppy, was born into a wealthy family that made its fortune from mustard. Throughout the book, Poppy is consistently immired in her own shallow world. She lacks compassion and intelligent thought processes in every situation. I'm not sure why I finished this book since I had no interest in how Poppy's life evolved, although "watching" someone so oblivious to anyone other than herself was oddly fascinating.
