8. The Breakup Club

Tonight I read Book 8 - The Breakup Club - at Barnes and Noble. I know, what an exciting Friday night. Anyway, yes, it's Chick Lit but atleast not in the romance catagory, it was in the regular fiction section. Yes it's set in New York, yes they work in publishing and yes there are breakups. Sounds like my typical unhappy 20something books, right? Here's the description:
Meet the Members of the Breakup Club . . .
Lucy Miller-Masterson: Superstar editor of bestselling books, supermom to a precocious preteen and superwife of a hot doctor . . . until she learns her husband's New Year's resolution of "Leave Lucy."
Miranda Miller: Stuck under her big sister's shadow, this twentysomething editorial assistant hopes her perfect ex-boyfriend will come crawling back . . . with a diamond ring.

Christopher Levy: The women at the office think he stole Lucy's promotion. The moms at the playground think he broke up his family. But this weekend dad can think only about figuring out fatherhood.

Roxy Marone: This Brooklynite shocks her traditional family when she skips her own wedding to hop a train to Manhattan for a life-changing job interview.
In her most ambitious novel yet, Melissa Senate explores life after heartbreak for four very different yet equally memorable New Yorkers, with her characteristic warmth, wit and wisdom.
It was a good read, with real characters, not silly overly fictionalized ones. All in all a totally enjoyable way to spend part of my Friday evening!
