Women's Fiction Contemporary
A radiant debut novel about stumbling through the early
years of adulthood— and a love letter to the role models who
light the way.
Like so many other recent graduates, Dawn West is trying to
make her way in New York City. She’s got an ex-boyfriend she
can’t quite stop seeing, a roommate who views rent checks
and basic hygiene as optional, and a writing career that’s
gotten as far as penning an online lawn care advice column. So when Dawn lands a job tracking down the past winners of
Charm magazine’s “Ten Girls to Watch” contest, she’s
thrilled. After all, she’s being paid to interview hundreds
of fascinating women: once outstanding college students,
they have gone on to become mayors, opera singers, and air
force pilots. As Dawn gets to know their life stories,
she’ll discover that success, love, and friendship can be
found in the most unexpected of places. Most importantly,
she’ll learn that while those who came before us can be role
models, ultimately, we each have to create our own happy
ending.
