As ( I can't remember the writer ) one writer pointed out , in the
Novel, she was a Lauren Bacall character. Where as on screen she came
across like Lucille Ball.

John Brosnan, in "James Bond In The Cinema", for a long time the only such book. Very often imitated and sometimes directly plagiarised.

"Vacuous" - having or showing a lack of intelligence or serious thought : lacking meaning, importance, or substance.

Rosie Carver - CIA agent; Mary Goodnight - MI6 agent; Christmas Jones - nuclear physicist; Stacey Sutton - geologist; Bibi Dahl - teenaged ice skater!

But there has never been a Bond Girl more vacuous than Bibi. Never! )
