Everyone Worth Knowing

Lauren Weisberger, known for her bestselling debut, returns with another cautionary tale of sex, power, and fame, this time targeting the PR industry. Bette Robinson, a twentysomething Emory graduate, rejects her parents' hippie ideals for a high-paying yet dull job at a prestigious investment bank. After a condescending encounter with her boss, she quits and spends weeks lounging at home with her dog, Millington. Her uncle then lands her a position at a trendy public relations firm, where her responsibilities revolve around nightlife and feeding gossip columns. Bette's journey involves climbing the social ladder, often at the expense of her friends, family, and a promising romantic interest. Weisberger cleverly transforms outrageous scenarios into humorous anecdotes, such as a woman's near-suicide averted by the prospect of acquiring a coveted Birkin bag. This blend of wit and a hint of voyeurism makes the story a guilty pleasure, capturing the allure of the glamorous yet superficial world of public relations.
