Despite going to group therapy to grow a backbone, Cynthia Fishbein has a problem being anything other than the "nice" girl. This all changes when a devious colleague at her advertising agency schemes to steal her idea and make Cyn look the fool. With visions of the movie "Working Girl" running through her head, Cyn decides it's time to stand up for herself. With the support of her successful and eccentric friends, she attempts to inject more "badness" into her job and relationships.

A witty and wonderful romp that avoids so many pitfalls of British singleton tales, ORIGINAL CYN is an excellent example of humor with heart. Between descriptions of Cyn's delightfully loony family, her hysterical best friends and the interchanges among the therapy group, this book contains a meaningful storyline of friendship, family and truthfulness.
