New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster takes you from sorority house to penthouse to poorhouse in her hilarious memoir of living the sweet life—until real life kicked her to the curb.She had the perfect man, the perfect job—hell, she had the perfect life—and there was no reason to think it wouldn't last. Or maybe there was, but Jen Lancaster was too busy being manicured, pedicured, highlighted, and generally adored to notice.This is the smart-mouthed, soul-searching story of a woman trying to figure out what happens next when she's gone from six figures to unemployment checks and she stops to reconsider some of the less-than-rosy attitudes and values she thought she'd never have to answer for when times were good.Filled with caustic wit and unusual insight, it's a rollicking read as speedy and unpredictable as the trajectory of a burst balloon.

When this first came out it was a frothy bit of fun - a slightly darker, real-life “Confessions of a Shopaholic” where successful Jen Lancaster is forced to take a long hard look at her life after losing her job -and everything else.But oh my, this book does not wear well over a decade later.Jen’s constant casual racism (she throws a fit in the Unemployment office when they begin an Orientation in Spanish and yes - makes “we’re in America” cracks that she thinks are oh-so-witty); ableism (she nicknames a coworker “Retardy-Arty” - isn’t she a kick?) and classicism (too many to mention - but let’s just say she has a LOT of opinions about her low-income neighbors and how she can’t wait until the neighborhood gentrification gets them all moved far away from her) all just add up to far too many moments when you really wish someone would just haul off and smack her upside the head with a Walmart purse.Yikes.The challenge is that while Jen happily refers to herself - even in the title - as “condescending and egomaniacal” - we clearly are meant to see this as a joke and to see her as she herself does - funny, charming, witty and (maybe) just a teensy, weensy bit ‘difficult’.An example of this is the story she tells about a company that actually rescinds a job offer entirely as a direct result of her own childish, bad behavior. ( She posts a public lists of companies that didn’t hire her on the internet and goes on about what bastards they all are).When her prospective employer withdraws their offer because a number of their clients are on that list - does Jen learn a valuable lesson about being careful what you put on the internet?Nope. Far from it. She doubles down on her blog and adds these people to her virtual ‘hit-list’ and starts fiendishly trying to figure out who ratted on her. (I guess Ms “I’m the greatest marketing wizard in the world” never heard of Googling someone)But we’re clearly supposed to be right alongside her - shaking our heads about how “unfair” everyone us to poor old Jen and cheering her on with her blow against ...er...um... it’s hard to say what this was meant to achieve exactly.I guess it helped her add yet another group to the ever-growing list of “People who don’t think Jen is nearly as fun and madcap as she thinks she is”.Shoot- now I’m probably on that list too.What are you going to do?I’ll make sure if we ever meet I’ll have my Walmart purse tucked firmly under my arm - just in case.
