Sharp and funny this story felt like a pressure cooker, and I quickly became immersed. I appreciated the openness of the ending, which allows you the reader to reflect and think of what you'd do. It demonstrated that things that seem black and white seldom are just that.

While the day-to-day look at assistant life in Hollywood was interesting, Kaplan did a great job of leaving space for morally ambiguous choices.

The unnamed MC returns from Harvard to look for a job in the entertainment industry. Her mom‘s connections land her an entry-level job at a network. As she progresses in her first year, she learns about sexual assault allegations against multiple people in the company with very different results. CW ⬇️

Cinfhen Was this print or audio?? Sounds like it has potential!! 3y
Megabooks @Cinfhen this was audio, and it was well narrated! I picked it up at the audible sitewide sale. I don‘t know if you were able to get any with all that you‘ve had going on, but I picked up a dozen books that were under $8. 👍🏻 3y
Cinfhen I did pick up a few 😁but I missed this one 🙃I‘ll look on scribd - it seems like a #BorrowNotBuy 3y
Megabooks @Cinfhen so interested to find out what you picked up!! I got a bunch from the national book award longlist and some ones that had been sitting on my wishlist awhile. 3y

Wasn‘t quite sure what to expect when I picked this up, but this was an absolute treat. Kaplan‘s debut is sharply written, funny, and her take on #MeToo issues is nuanced and thoughtful. The narrator‘s mother is splendidly awful. Watch out for it in July.
