I think this is a wonderfully written book. I can't believe how quickly I read it, was pretty much unable to put it down, and I care nothing about fashion, magazine publishing, or the young, hip, NYC lifestyle. I think that the author draws you into the main character's life and you become engrossed in it, in the same way that the main character became obsessed with trying to please her obviously psycho boss. Not a deep book, or one that is designed to evoke thoughtfulness, but good escapist fiction (although I am pretty sure this is based on the author's experience, as it rings just a little bit too true).
