   Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.   BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |   ) hellokirsti | Jan 3, 2024 |  ) DKnight0918 | Dec 23, 2023 | This was really sweet, quite funny, and had a great plot to keep the story moving (although I really I would have even enjoyed just reading about their maniacal lives because Weisberger can make anything fun.) I appreciated the female comraderie, though I was very concerned about the amount of vaginal plastic surgery that was spoken of frequently. The references to DEVIL WEARS PRADA were interspersed quite well--the author knows it's been 15 years and that we don't remember every detail, but she's aged up the characters respectively and has thrown in some Easter eggs for those of us who remember. Thanks, Simon & Schuster, for the e-galley! I think it's time for me to catch up on all the Weisberger books I have yet to read. (  ) whakaora | Mar 5, 2023 | Emily Charlton might have been my favorite character from The Devil Wears Prada, so this book was a delight! Lauren Weisberger delivers her usual snappy dialogue, in a light, fun, fast paced read. Emily is her snarky self, and we meet two friends: former model Karolina, who gets herself in a bit of a pickle and needs Emily's help as an image consultant, and former attorney-turned-stay at home mom, Miriam, who joins the fight to help Karolina. Told alternately from all three points of view and set in the Greenwich, Connecticut, it's filled with the over the top stereotypes of lunching ladies clad in Lululemon and views of ridiculous wealth and privilege. The story is hilarious, but underlying the humor Karolina is the victim of lies and deception, and the trio handles it in the only way you would expect them to. This is all over the top, eye-rolling fun. Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a copy of the book. All opinions are my own!

"New York Times bestselling author Lauren Weisberger returns with a novel starring one of her favorite characters from The Devil Wears Prada--Emily Charlton, first assistant to Miranda Priestly, now a highly successful image consultant who's just landed the client of a lifetime. Welcome to Greenwich, CT, where the lawns and the women are perfectly manicured, the Tito's and sodas are extra strong, and everyone has something to say about the infamous new neighbor. Let's be clear: Emily Charlton, Miranda Priestly's ex-assistant, does not do the suburbs. She's working in Hollywood as an image consultant to the stars, but recently, Emily's lost a few clients. She's hopeless with social media. The new guard is nipping at her heels. She needs a big opportunity, and she needs it now. Karolina Hartwell is as A-list as they come. She's the former face of L'Oreal. A mega-supermodel recognized the world over. And now, the gorgeous wife of the newly elected senator from New York, Graham, who also has his eye on the presidency. It's all very Kennedy-esque, right down to the public philandering and Karolina's arrest for a DUI--with a Suburban full of other people's children. Miriam is the link between them. Until recently she was a partner at one of Manhattan's most prestigious law firms. But when Miriam moves to Greenwich and takes time off to spend with her children, she never could have predicted that being stay-at-home mom in an uber-wealthy town could have more pitfalls than a stressful legal career. Emily, Karolina, and Miriam make an unlikely trio, but they desperately need each other. Together, they'll navigate the social landmines of life in America's favorite suburb on steroids, revealing the truths--and the lies--that simmer just below the glittering surface. With her signature biting style, Lauren Weisberger offers a dazzling look into another sexy, over-the-top world, where nothing is as it appears"--
