I need a day like Miss Pettigrew's.

Oh my gosh, what a sweet story! Cinderella set in 1938 London, and such an unlikely Cinderella! A governess sent to the wrong address by her agency, and she gets pulled into the most unlikely situations imaginable. And so many things experienced for the first time: makeup, wearing silk, drinking, speaking her mind, and being kissed. All in one day.

I'm too tired to write a proper review, but if you can get your hands on it, read Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day by Winifred Watson. I expect it'll be reprinted next year when the movie comes out. I got impatient and bought it from amazon.co.uk (and paid pots and pots of money for the shipping, but it's worth it).

Well? What're you waiting for?! Go read it!
