Publisher's summary

New York Times Bestseller

“Into the blender go Anita Loos, Bridget Jones, Sex and the City, and Clueless; out comes a diabolically amusing concoction.” — New York Times

A 10th anniversary edition of New York Times bestselling author Plum Sykes’s sly and amusing satire, with a foreword by the author.

Bergdorf Blondes are a thing, you know, a New York craze. Absolutely everyone wants to be one, but it’s très difficult. You wouldn’t believe the dedication it takes to be a gorgeous, flaxen-haired, dermatologically perfect New York girl with a life that’s fabulous beyond belief. Honestly, it requires a level of commitment comparable to, say, learning Hebrew or quitting cigarettes.

But first, a little bit about moi. The gossips call me a champagne bubble of a girl. I’m fluent in French, intermittently. I gave up England for Princeton to my mother’s horror. By day, I write articles for a fashion magazine. By night, I’m on the prowl for the ultimate accessory a Bergdorf Blonde must have: an impossibly rich man with a very large diamond ring.

And of course, I’m fabulous.

story that is more shallow than it's VERY shallow characters

shallow characters, shallow plot. Rich girl talks about fashion, name drops, bangs and couple of guys, the end. There's hardly a plot, no character arc and even the descriptions of the fashion are lacking substance. Shallowness could work if you could at least enjoy the decadence of shallowness, but this is so bland you can't even enjoy it as a guilty pleasure. (the voice actor is very pleasant to listen to though!)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
