Book Reviews of Bitter is the New Black : Confessions of a Condescending, Egomaniacal, Self-Centered Smartass,Or, Why You Should Never Carry A Prada Bag to the Unemployment Office
Book Review: A good read
Summary: 4 Stars
Jen Lancaster writes about her high-flying job, the loss thereof and subsequently the trials and tribulations suffered and overcome. It is entertaining, honest and sometimes funny. She openly mentions having read and admired 'Dreamworld of a Shopaholic' and in places one feels has tried to take a bit of its sparkle for her own work, too. I don't feel this book deserves quite as much praise as the hype in the US would have you believe, but it is a good read nevertheless. Plus it is quite refreshing to read a young woman write a memoir which does not have the pursuit of a man as it's centre point. ;-)
