So excited to have gotten an early peek at this amazing debut by my pal Diane Cohen Schneider. It’s even better than I expected! Andrea Hoffman is an overeducated, underemployed, and unmotivated recent college graduate–until an unexpected robbery blasts her out of her funk and into a job in the finance world of early-1980s Chicago. Andrea is a delightful protagonist — smart, witty, sharply observant and wonderfully edgy — as she navigates the gritty, often ugly, and shockingly naive 1980s. The novel is entertaining and also quite moving, and Andrea’s story is surprising, a little scary, but ultimately deeply satisfying. Pre-order your copy now!
