Glamurozni (dvostruki) život Isabel B.

Glamurozni (dvostruki) život Isabel B.

Holly Mcqueen

A writer, then? Let's try again. Isabel Bookbinder is a twenty-seven-year-old office assistant at the Saturday Mercury newspaper in London, and her life may not be the most glamorous.

Measuring newspaper columns with a wooden ruler is not exactly the job of her dreams, her boyfriend is a simple bum, her mother is obsessed with monochromatic outfits, and her father always expects something more from her. Luckily, Isabel has a hell of a plan to help her change all that. Because Isabel will soon become a star writer. She's just missing a few little things. Like, for example, that ill-fated debut novel. But she planned everything, and good preparation should solve at least half of the painstaking work by itself. She'll perfect the right look for her new status (not too simple, not too flashy), sculpt her figure to a size XS at the gym, and start getting up at the crack of dawn to work on her debut novel. Okay, maybe not exactly at the crack of dawn, but almost. She'll even secure herself a fantastic mentor - a wildly successful and eccentric author who will take her to glamorous promotions and introduce her to her dream literary agent, Joe Madison. But Isabel wouldn't be Isabel if something didn't go wrong. An unexpected discovery will make her famous for all the wrong things and her glamorous double life will be turned upside down.
