The Devil Wears Prada meets Primary Colors in this wickedly funny debut novel about a bootstrapping young reporter who lands a plum job at a big-time cable news station and finds her ambitions and her love life turned upside down When Amanda Gallo, fresh from the backwater of local TV, lands the job of her dreams at FAIR Newsthe coveted morning anchor slotshes finally made it: a six-figure salary, wardrobe allowance, plenty of on-air face time, and a chance to realize her dreams, not to mention buy herself lunch. Amanda Wakes Up takes off as Amanda feels for the first time that she can make her mom and her best friend proud and think about an actual future with her boyfriend, Charlie. But she finds her journalistic ideals shredded as she struggles to keep up with the issues in a ratings-crazed madhousebattling for hair and makeup time, coping with her sexist (but scathingly handsome) coanchor, Rob, mixing up the headlines with pajama modeling on the street, and showing Benji Diggs, her media maestro boss, that shes got what it takes. As the news heats up in a hotly contested election season and a wild-card candidate, former Hollywood actor Victor Fluke, appears on the scene, Amandas pressure-cooker job gets hotter as her personal life unravels. Walking a knifes edge between ambition and survival, and about to break the biggest story of her career, Amanda must decide what shes willing to give up to get aheadand what she needs to hold on to to save herself.

This is how I do breakfast and lunch prep for our ONE child.

The book? Keeping my interest.

I used to work in television (still sort of do) so I love to read novels about that side of life. AND if you were wondering, anchors have the life. Get in at 4. We would get in at 2 to start show prep. 😴

Takes on sensational journalism and unlike the reality of our 2016 election in this fictional world the right candidate wins.

Well, maybe Amanda is waking up, but I'm going to bed. A long day of work and a cross country meet this evening. Wonder how long I can read before I fall asleep.

AlaMich At first I thought it was odd that Tapper was tweeting what appeared to be a rec for chick lit, but then I read description of the book. Sounds really good! 8y
LauraBeth @AlaMich 😂 I need to tweet Tapper about reading chick lit and see if he responds 😀 8y
LauraBeth @Divinenanny, @KarenUK, @seebiscan now we just have to wait until July... 8y
AlaMich @LauraBeth He seems like an enlightened, 21st century kinda guy. He probably won't be offended 😉 8y
Brenda Alisyn is a host on CNN morning show. That may have something to do with Jake's tweet 😉 8y
LauraBeth @Brenda ahhhh - that's why her name sounds so familiar (and why he's promoting it)! 😀 8y
Brenda @LauraBeth Yes! I knew I'd heard the name before so I looked her up 🙂 8y
AlaMich @Brenda That makes sense 😊 8y
minkyb It does sound perfect! 8y
