Does anyone think that I can be a writer one day? Came across this book and found it pretty inspirational...Diane Vadino, who writes for the one of my favorite blogs Bunnyshop.org is just put out her first novel called Smart Girls Like Me. Smart Girls Like Me is a story about Betsey Nilssen, a 24-year-old assistant editor of a dot-com fashion magazine, who is convinced the world is going to end on January 1, 2000. When Betsey isn't stocking up on freeze dried foods for the "end of the world" she is busy planning her best friend's wedding and crushing on a hot co-worker in her office. As Betsey counts down to the New Year she can't help but feel lonely as her best friend is getting married and she has to go solo. This book has looks at relationships with friends and the opposite sex in a smart and funny fashion.The book is already receiving a ton of praise and has readers actually laughing out loud. Nylon magazine says "beautiful". Marie Claire says "seriously good writing" and Entertainment Weekly says "raw and honest." I can't wait to read it so I can add to the flurry of positive reviews!
