This post is a day late because I am a techno-turd. Not
nerd. I wish. I always have such trouble figuring out the simplest things, but
that’s not your problem. Here is the post meant for yesterday!
Ta Da! Introducing Meredith Schorr, chick lit author extraordinaire! She is one of the Chick
Lit Goddesses I hang out with on FB. I love Meredith’s genuine writing of
authentic characters, situations and reactions. If you haven’t picked up Just Friends with Benefits or A State of Jane, why not??? But, even if
you haven’t read her earlier work, you are just in time for her newest release,
Blogger Girl by Booktrope Editions.
What happens when your high school
nemesis becomes the shining star in a universe you pretty much saved? Book
blogger Kimberly Long is about to find out.
A chick lit enthusiast since the first time she read Bridget
Jones’s Diary, Kim, with her
blog, "Pastel is the New Black," has worked tirelessly by night to
keep the genre alive, and help squash the claim that "chick lit is
dead" once and for all. Not bad for a woman who by day ekes out a meager
living as a pretty, and pretty-much-nameless, legal secretary in a Manhattan
law firm.
While Kim's day job holds no passion
for her, the handsome (and shaving challenged) associate down the hall is
another story. Yet another story is that Hannah Marshak, one of her most hated
high school classmates, has now popped onto the chick lit scene with a hot new
book that's turning heads--and pages--across the land. It's also popped
into Kim's inbox--for review. With their ten-year high school reunion drawing near,
Kim's coming close to combustion over the hype about Hannah’s book.
And as everyone around her seems to be moving on and up, she begins to question
whether being a “blogger girl” makes the grade in her off-line life.
A
born and bred New Yorker, Meredith Schorr discovered her passion for writing when she began
to enjoy drafting work-related emails way more than she was probably supposed
to, and was famous among her friends for writing witty birthday cards. After trying
her hand writing children’s stories and blogging her personal experiences, Meredith
found her calling writing “real” chick lit for real women. When Meredith is not hard at work on her
current work in progress, she spends her days as a trademark paralegal. Meredith is a loyal New York Yankees
fan and an avid runner. Blogger Girl is her third novel.
