Women's Fiction Contemporary
Named a most anticipated novel of the summer by
Vogue, Entertainment Weekly, Elle,
Bustle, Vulture, and more. An assured and savagely funny novel about three old friends
as they navigate careers, husbands, an ex-fiancé, new
suitors, and, most importantly, their relationships with one
another After a devastating break-up with her fiancé, Geraldine is
struggling to get her life back on track in Toronto. Her two
old friends, Sunny and Rachel, left ages ago for New York,
where they've landed good jobs, handsome husbands, and
unfairly glamorous lives (or at least so it appears to
Geraldine). Sick of watching from the sidelines, Geraldine
decides to force the universe to give her the big break she
knows she deserves, and moves to New York City. As she zigzags her way through the downtown art scene and
rooftop party circuit, she discovers how hard it is to find
her footing in a world of influencers and media darlings.
Meanwhile, Sunny's life as an It Girl watercolorist is not
nearly as charmed as it seemed to Geraldine from Toronto.
And Rachel is trying to keep it together as a new mom,
writer, and wife--how is it that she was more confident and
successful at twenty-five than in her mid-thirties? Perhaps
worst of all, why are Sunny and Rachel--who've always been
suspicious of each other--suddenly hanging out without
Geraldine? Hilarious and fiercely observed, How Could She is an
essential novel of female friendship, an insider's look into
the cutthroat world of New York media--from print to
podcasting--and a witty exploration of the ways we can and
cannot escape our pasts.
