Query: Humorous at the end, but mostly tiresome.....

Much of the book is about a social climbing wife of a retired sea captain who inherits some money. The daughter for whom the book is named, is a minimal character in the book until later in the story. The daughter finally makes an entrance in the nick of time before the social climbing wife completely destroys both their marital happiness and their bank account. The daughter gets busy and eventually does manage to help her family get their priorities straight, complete with a happy ending. Unfortunately, the narration of the social climbing gets very tiresome. It is only in the latter part of the book that it becomes somewhat humorous.I had really enjoyed "Galusha the Magnificent" by the same author, so I eagerly downloaded other books by him. I will read one or two of the others with hopes they are more like "Galusha" but this one was somewhat disappointing.
