Contemporary Chick Lit
On paper, Nora's life looks perfect. She's moving in with
her boyfriend Dan, she has a stable job and a great group of
friends. But she's stuck in what she refers to as
"meta-life," the plight of overthinking and secondguessing
to the point of self-sabotage. One day at work, Nora decides
to thwart her meta-life by following her instincts. In what
feels like a moment of revelation, she quits her job.
Immediately, her meta-life goes into overdrive: What on
earth was she thinking--and what is she going to do now?
Fortunately, when a friend asks Nora to rewrite her Internet
dating profile, she realizes that not only is she good at
it, but she really enjoys it. Billing herself as a Cyrano de
Bergerac for the lovelorn, Nora finally begins to find
professional success. But soon, Nora's meta-life has latched
onto the question she's asked so many clients: What are the
five things she can't live without? Is her flourishing
business one of them? Is Dan? With each new client and each
step she takes in her own relationship, she must confront
her biggest demon-- her self-sabotaging "meta-life." But
will she be able to slay it forever?
