I feel like she nailed the St. Regis I grew up there just living a mile away from my house spending brunches there and my dad was friends with the prior owners and felt like I was there in the book. Amanda was such a great and lovably flawed character but strong at the same time. Andre reminds me of Gilles Marini the actor from Sex and the City. The secondary characters like the mom and Stephanie were fun to read. I will definitely recommend the book to my friends. And the discussion questions at the end were so great for a book club! All the fashion was so fun to read about also. Can't wait to read her other books. Some of my fave lines:I felt like Shrek being interviewed by the Queen. If I released the trapdoor that kept my thoughts shut, they would bury me. I learned from Anita Hughes that divorce is easy when you're a multi million dollar heiress. You can stuff your kid with milkshakes and get alone time by leaving him in the care of hotel staff, mope between spa sessions, and be grotesquely indulged by your mom and best friends unquestioning support. Cutting off all and any ties to your spouse is a breeze and avoiding any emotional exploration or analysis of your relationship is the method prescribed too move forward.I was disappointed at this surface treatment of divorce and life of a 99 percenter.
I liked this book and wish there was a continuation of this story.
