Despite my best intentions, I requested ANOTHER netgalley arc… 🤦🏻♀️
“Mad Men meets Devil Wears Prada?” I’m here for this! And look at that cover!
Park Avenue Summer by Renee Rosen releases April 30, 2019 and We. Can’t. Wait!
About the Book:
Mad Men meets The Devil Wears Prada as Renée Rosen draws readers into the glamour of 1965 New York City and Cosmopolitan Magazine, where a brazen new Editor-in-Chief–Helen Gurley Brown–shocks America by daring to talk to women about all things off limits… New York City is filled with opportunities for single girls like Alice Weiss who leaves her small Midwestern town to chase her big city dreams and unexpectedly lands the job of a lifetime working for Helen Gurley Brown, the first female Editor-in-Chief of a then failing Cosmopolitan Magazine. Nothing could have prepared Alice for the world she enters as editors and writers resign on the spot, refusing to work for the woman who wrote the scandalous bestseller, Sex and the Single Girl. While confidential memos, article ideas, and cover designs keep finding their way into the wrong hands, someone tries to pull Alice into this scheme to sabotage her boss. But Alice remains loyal and becomes all the more determined to help Helen succeed. As pressure mounts at the magazine and Alice struggles to make her way in New York, she quickly learns that in Helen’s world, a woman can demand to have it all!

This sounds great! I love a feminist streak in a book and a historical bent. Is it biographical, do you know?

I agree! I think it’s historical fiction- “inspired by” real people.
