Although it tries very hard to bring out "career girls", it gives the idea that even to climb the corporate ladder you have to be a 34-22-32 hottie with an unflinching desire to sleep with men.
I did not find a single man in this book who did not salivate for the girls, and a single man, whose advancements the girls rejected.
It basically gives the idea that when a man sees a woman, all he sees is the body, all he wants is to sleep with her. And these "intellectual" women are not so intellectual.

A great guilty pleasure read. Good as long as you get to the end.

I read this book because it was featured on the Sentimental Garbage podcast. I like to read the books they cover and then listen to the episode.
I think I would have enjoyed this a lot more if I had read it when it came out or at least when I was younger. I enjoyed the first half, the second seemed more far-fetched. It’s great to read a story that focuses on women with career goals who make that their priority (it’s rare!) but wowza at the descriptions of them. Everything is very male gazey which was distracting.
