, which I’ve just started reading, hooks you from the opening pages with its breathless urgency and captures what it’s like to live in NY now, with money worries and ambition and myriad obligations breathing down your neck, and none of it written in cutesy chick-lit’ry. So give it a try.” –Vanity Fair Online, James Wolcott, January 15, 2010 “Plank has a knack for combining philosophical opinions, hard-luck family stories, discount shopping triumphs, and gently slapstick humor into a book that makes readers laugh, think, and swallow hard in sympathy.” –ForeWord Reviews
“I swallowed it up, no pun intended… The novel is very chatty and engaging… A great beach read.” –Gotham Gal
“…As engaging as any book I have read. Although it does seem to be a little long at first, the character development is so appealing that once you start reading you find yourself eagerly anticipating what will come next…” –Examiner.com
“This is not just regional, women’s fiction – it transcends any genre… Ms. Plank’s first novel is a brilliant show of even greater things to come. She is an author to watch and follow.” –The Review Broads
“This novel is riveting… Plank deftly portrays the journey of a young, talented woman trying to come to terms with her insecurities and anxieties in a city whose cultural and economic climate can be cut-throat and, in some cases, debilitating. Accurate and witty depictions of the professional and social lifestyle of “successful” New Yorkers add spice and humor to the very serious issues addressed in this story.” –Micaela Schedlbauer, Reviewer
