Sad Desk Salad

Sad Desk Salad

Amazon Link-Totes worth it!

Okay, my friends, you know for a very long time while my children were infants/toddlers/pre-schoolers, I subscribed to the only real news I believed existed--wait for it--Us Weekly. I literally loved everything about celebrities, and my narrowly focused life felt somehow more expanded by reading about celebrities. Pathetic, no doubt. But seriously, who doesn't love the "Stars, they're just like us" pictures? They pump gas? They open their car door? They hail a cab? Holy Shit! That's some of the very same things I do! WOW! It's so ridiculous, I have to spend my hard earned salary on a $4.99 glossy that tells me Rihanna opens a car door. I mean, what the heck-you only live once. Part of the reason I loved reading  Between You and Me was because I felt like I was reliving the Britney drama all over again. If you haven't read that one, be sure to check it out!

Mandy's Blogger Book Club

Anyhow, Mandy over at the Well Read Wife sent me Sad Desk Salad as part of her Blogger Book Club. She was so very kind and generous to send me the book, and I devoured this book! I'll frontload you with the scoop so you can get your booty out, and buy this book!

The Down Low: Alex Lyons is a blogger on a website called "Chick Habit." Alex, and her co-workers report on all things pop culture (bonus for the uber recent material Jessica Grose!) . She has an over-zealous boss who always wants Alex and the lot posting about scandalous shit. Well, Alex hits the jackpot on a story, and risks everything she has, including personal relationships in the pursuit of page hits. Her plans hit a snag when someone starts BTCH, a hate website. Alex cannot rest until she finds out who is trying to sabotage her. Does she ever find out? You, my fellow reader, must pick this book up to find out.

Confession: Two half sick days were sacrificed in the finishing of this book. *Cough**Sniff* I do feel much better now.
