Contemporary Chick Lit
On the day that Holly Hastings -- on the advice of her
therapist -- writes her own obituary, she realizes her life
isn't going as she had hoped. At 28 she lives in Buffalo,
has never had a real boyfriend and has a lame job as a local
newspaper obituary writer. After watching an old Marilyn
Monroe movie, she devises a plan to find and marry a rich
guy, and even vows to document the whole thing in a how-to
book. Ignoring the moral dilemmas (and her true aspirations to
write the Great American Novel), Holly recruits her best
friend George to join her on gold-digging adventures that
lead them to upscale hotel bars and Mercedes dealerships in
Buffalo, to Florida, the haven for millionaires (really
old millionaires. Shucks!), and finally to living in an
old Vicrorian house above a gorgeous ex-dot-commer in San
Francisco. But Holly's quest for the bling is interrupted by
a proposal from a gay man and a crush on her neighbor. Will Holly settle for marrying up, or will she choose to
marry right?
