In this chick lit, a twenty-something girl moves to New York finds herself starring on a reality television show. Refreshingly, it focuses on the character's family and work life as much as (if not more than) it does on her romantic relationship. The author has a nice ear for dialogue and has created a very likable and fairly self-effacing narrator. See also
Milkrun. Better than average chick lit, the charm of this book is in the frenzied and hilarious inner monologue of Jackie, romance novel editor and recent dumpee.
