If you've never read Kim before, you are in for a surprise treat. Kim used to blog about living in Malone, a small town in upstate New York, her quirky neighbors and her husband Paul with his "Harley Barn." When she started writing about the first Phil Spector trial, Kim gave her readers spot-on analysis of the legal issues as well as hands-down, the best wit and sarcasm about the players involved anywhere. During that first trial, I used to print out her entries for the late Dominick Dunne to read because he told me he just loved her writing. Don't even stop to think about it.
