Glamurozni (dvostruki) život Isabel B.

Glamurozni (dvostruki) život Isabel B.

Holly Mcqueen

Spisateljica, dakle? Pokušajmo ponovno. Isabel Bookbinder dvadesetsedmogodišnja je uredska pomoćnica u novinskome listu Saturday Mercury iz Londona, a njezin život možda i nije najglamurozniji.

Mjerenje novinskih kolumni drvenim ravnalom baš i ne predstavlja posao njezinih snova, dečko joj je obični bezveznjak, majka joj je opsjednuta jednobojnim odjevnim kombinacijama, a otac uvijek od nje očekuje nešto više. Srećom, Isabel ima pakleni plan koji će joj pomoći da sve to promijeni. Jer Isabel će, naime, uskoro postati spisateljska zvijezda. Samo joj još nedostaje nekoliko sitnica. Kao na primjer, taj nesretni debitantski roman. No sve je isplanirala, a dobra bi priprema trebala sama od sebe riješiti barem pola mukotrpnog posla. Usavršit će pravi izgled za svoj novi status (ne prejednostavan, ne prenapadan), u teretani istesati figuru do veličine XS, i početi se dizati u cik zore kako bi radila na debitantskom romanu. Dobro, možda ne baš u cik zore, ali gotovo. Osigurat će si čak i fantastičnu mentoricu – izvanredno uspješnu i ekscentričnu autoricu koja će je voditi na glamurozne promocije i upoznati je s književnim agentom iz snova, Joeom Madisonom. No Isabel ne bi bila Isabel kad nešto ne bi pošlo po zlu. Jedno neočekivano otkriće učinit će je poznatom po sasvim pogrešnim stvarima i njezin će se glamurozni dvostruki život izokrenuti naglavačke.
