Life is grand--until their purse string-controlling grandmother is infuriated by a Vanity Fair profile of the girls' unsavory exploits. Now, they'll lose their inheritances if they don't get into ultra-selective Duke University. Enter Megan Simms, a brainy, recent Yale grad who's drowning in school debt. For $75,000 dollars--enough to pay back her loans-- she must ensure the girls are accepted at Duke. This is no small feat, given that the twins cannot sit still longer than it takes to down a glass of Cristal. Megan is going to have to learn her Pucci from her Prada, and play by a whole different set of rules if she's going to whip these two into academic shape. Along the way, she just might discover that the twins aren't the only ones getting an education. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Easy and lightThis was a fun, light read. I honestly believe that the book would be better suited for a young adult reader despite the fact that there is a pretty light romantic scene.

Rating: - Cinderalla Story in the World of the Uber RichCan't get enough of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Nicole Richie? HOW TO TEACH FILTHY RICH GIRLS by Zoey Dean might be the key to your rich girl obsessions. But don't let me mislead you, the book's about Megan. And she's far from rich. Megan graduated and wanted nothing but the publishing dream--move to New York City, find a job at a prestigious publishing company or magazine, and live her dream. What happened was a crummy job at a tabloid and a huge student load ($75,000 to be exact). ...

No perceptive insights into the world of the fabulously wealthy, no witty asides, no scintillating repartee. Instead, you have author Zoey Dane constantly reminding readers of Megan's magna cum laude dual degree from Yale. I guess she has to, because there is no indication otherwise that Megan has more than average intelligence. Dane's one attempt -Megan's suggestion of an article on the possible link ...

She would rather be working for a more well respected magazine, but stays put. That is until she gets fired. Her boss tells her that she is is not suited for that kind of job. Her boss tells her that she has a job lined up for her working in Florida and that it would help her money wise (she has massive college debt). Megan flies down to Florida, not knowing who she was going to work for, but ... Read More |
