How to Be a Grown-Up

Más información sobre el libro

The witty authors of The Nanny Diaries return with a hilarious tale about a forty-something wife and mother forced back into the workforce under the thumb of a #BossHalfHerAge. When Rory McGovern’s husband, Blake, loses his dream job and decides to “crash” at a friend’s, Rory is unprepared for the mid-life crisis that threatens to upend their lives. Already overwhelmed, she suddenly finds herself single-parenting two kids while managing science projects, flu season, karate classes, and middle school applications, all amid her crumbling marriage. Financially strained, her only option is to accept a full-time job with two ambitious twenty-somethings, Taylor and Kimmy, who, armed with Ivy League MBAs, are convinced they know everything about running JeuneBug, a luxury lifestyle site for kids. Despite being undermined by her younger bosses, Rory’s creativity and experience propel her to become the top contributor. While her bosses may dismiss experience as outdated, it may be just what they need when chaos ensues. McLaughlin and Kraus skillfully blend humor with poignant insights, crafting a story that resonates with anyone grappling with the quest to feel “grown-up.”
