Bitter is the new black


 Bitter is the new black : confessions of a condescending, egomaniacal, self-centered smart-ass, or why you should never carry a Prada bag to the unemployment office : a memoir / Jen Lancaster.

Jen Lancaster is certainly a egomaniacal, self-centered smart-ass but also great fun.  This is the story of Jen, a driven professional who is very successful at work.  Along come 9/11/01 and then a pretty impressive recession.  Jen is laid off from her job but figures it won't be difficult to find another one since her track record is so impressive.  Let's just say things don't work out like she hoped.  This is the story of her "fall from grace" from being able to buy any designer item that catches her eye to being the "white trash" neighbor drinking beer on the deck with loud friends.  The earlier Jen and I probably didn't have a whole lot in common...but the NEW Jen is really my kind of gal.
