Without further ado, get your ooh's and aah's ready....
What happens when your high school nemesis
becomes the shining star in a universe you pretty much saved? Book blogger
Kimberly Long is about to find out.
A chick lit
enthusiast since the first time she read
Bridget Jones’s Diary, Kim, with her blog, "Pastel is
the New Black," has worked tirelessly by night to keep the genre alive, and help
squash the claim that "chick lit is dead" once and for all. Not bad for a woman
who by day ekes out a meager living as a pretty, and pretty-much-nameless, legal
secretary in a Manhattan law firm.
While Kim's day job holds no passion for her,
the handsome (and shaving challenged) associate down the hall is another
story. Yet another story is that Hannah Marshak, one of her most hated high
school classmates, has now popped onto the chick-lit scene with a hot new book
that's turning heads--and pages--across the land. It's also popped into Kim's inbox--for review.
With their ten-year high school reunion drawing near, Kim's coming close to
combustion over the hype about Hannah’s
book. And as everyone around her seems to be moving on and up, she begins to
question whether being a “blogger girl” makes the grade in her off-line
life.
