I agree with the person who said that if you liked the Nanny Diaries, you'd like this book as well. Meaning, if you like vapid, "girls who should know better" characters in ridiculous New York situations, this is the book for you. Watch Ally McBeal? You'd like this book. Do we really need to read about yet another smart, capable young woman who falls prey to the allure of "City Life" and does stupid things in order to get by? I expected a trashy, Vogue-ish dishy read about Jimmy Choos, Manolos, and Prada -- and a character I could care about for at least a few days. But if you actually enjoy plot or character development, pass this one up.
