Bette Robinson, a young woman in her mid-twenties, quits her job at an investment bank because she hates it. She lands a post at a Manhattan public relations firm that plans parties and events for celebrities, and is quickly exposed to the pace of New York's social scene. Her boss and her colleagues make demands, her new friends include clubgoers and socialites, and she has to decide how much of herself to give to a job that thrives on appearances. Lauren Weisberger treats the setting with humor.
A light read for those who like fashion, celebrity, and workplace comedy. Fans of Weisberger's The Devil Wears Prada will recognize the world she draws on.
Practical, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Escapist Adventurer. Which reader are you?
