Devil Wears Prada | Lauren Weisberger

From the author ofREVENGE WEARS PRADA, a delightfully dishy novel about the all-time most impossible boss in the history of impossible bosses. Andrea Sachs, a small-town girl fresh out of college, lands the job a million girls would die for. Hired as the assistant to Miranda Priestly, the high-profile, fabulously successful editor of "Runway "magazine, Andrea finds herself in an office that shouts "Prada! Armani! Versace!" at every turn, a world populated by impossibly thin, heart-wrenchingly stylish women and beautiful men clad in fine-ribbed turtlenecks and tight leather pants that show off their lifelong dedication to the gym. With breathtaking ease, Miranda can turn each and every one of these hip sophisticates into a scared, whimpering child. THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA gives a rich and hilarious new meaning to complaints about The Boss from Hell. Narrated in Andrea s smart, refreshingly disarming voice, it traces a deep, dark, devilish view of life at the top only hinted at in gossip columns and over Cosmopolitans at the trendiest cocktail parties. From sending the latest, not-yet-in-stores Harry Potter to Miranda s children in Paris by private jet, to locating an unnamed antique store where Miranda had at some point admired a vintage dresser, to serving lattes to Miranda at precisely the piping hot temperature she prefers, Andrea is sorely tested each and every day and often late into the night with orders barked over the phone. She puts up with it all by keeping her eyes on the prize: a recommendation from Miranda that will get Andrea a top job at any magazine of her choosing. As things escalate from the merely unacceptable to the downright outrageous, however, Andrea begins to realize that the job a million girls would die for may just kill her. And even if she survives, she has to decide whether or not the job is worth the price of her soul."

1. It depends on what I‘m doing that day. If I‘m staying home then I change out of my nightgown into something comfortable to wear and then I change back into my nightgown before bed but if I leave the house then I change into a T-shirt and shorts and then when I get home, I‘ll change back into something comfortable and then put on my nightgown before bed.

2. Tagged! I‘ve seen the movie but I haven‘t read the book.

kelli7990 When I‘m staying home, I have a loose sleeveless dress that I like to wear when I‘m not in my night gown and I don‘t usually wear a bra when I‘m wearing it. If I know I have to leave the house then I wear a bra so I can have the support but if I‘m staying home all day then I don‘t see the point in wearing a bra. 2mo

5/5 for this one! This book took “mean boss” to the next level! The things our poor main character, Andi, has to go through are just awful! Andi gets the job that a million girls would die for, but once she has it she discovers it‘s not everything she hopes it will be. I loved her journey in this book. She is not a perfect character, but I liked her for her imperfections. I got to see a side of the fashion industry that I‘ve never seen before.

Weisberger has a fun sense of humor throughout, but I think it‘s just not meant to be my type of book. I enjoyed the movie quite a bit, but I could probably attribute that to my entire lack of fashion knowledge, and all the name dropping in the book meant literally nothing to me. It worked better as a visual story for me, but still well-written and worth my actually wanting to pick it up again to finish.
My first book for #TBRDeckofCards!

Soubhiville I‘ve had this on my TBR forever, a gift from a friend. But I‘m pretty certain I‘d feel the same as you- the movie was fun but I‘m not sure there‘s any reason for me to read the book. 4y
MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm @Soubhiville I think Streep and Hathaway definitely improved the depth of the characters, especially Streep‘s Miranda. In the movie I feel like you see a glimpse of a human side of her, which just makes her a sadder and even more despicable character in the long run than the two-dimensional super-bitch depicted in the book. If you haven‘t felt an overpowering urge to read it by now, I think it‘s safe to say it‘s not worth it. 😅 4y

Here‘s hoping I actually get some reading in. 🤪 Work is in upheaval, I don‘t know up from down anymore. I haven‘t read at all the last day or two. I‘m definitely looking forward to the weekend but I‘ll be sticking with the modest goal of finishing the tagged book and getting as far in Forces of Nature as I can.

Funny, sassy, and a lot of sarcasm, the Devil Wears Prada follows a young optimistic college grad who is dying for a start in New York journalism career but finds herself the personal assistant to the editor in chief of Runway Magazine. Hopefully from what everyone has told her, if she makes it through one year working for Miranda Priestly, she'll be able to snag one of the jobs she really wants thanks to the name and reputation of her boss.

1. This sounds very sad but never ever got dressed up for Halloween, wasn‘t such a big think in the U.K. when I was growing up but my favourite fancy dress was when I went as a devil as a young adult?

2. Not particularly Halloween but love Which Witch by Eva Ibbotson.

I did not like Andy. At all. I thought she was passive aggressive when she would do mean, obnoxious things to get back at Runway and Miranda Priestly. She was always defensive when her parents, Alex, and the best friend tried to talk to her.

However, I know I will read the sequel Revenge Wears Prada. Thank goodness, I love Anne Hathaway. I'm watching the movie on my day off.

I‘m somehow weirdly entertained when I like the movie better than the book maybe because it seldom happens for me. In the movie Meryl, Anne, and Emily embodied both comedy and empathy for their Miranda, Andrea, and Emily. In the book, Andrea‘s constant whining got old way before the book resolved.

Happy Saturday! It's 5 o'clock somewhere, right? 😏🍷

I just started this book since Lucas bought me When Life Gives you Lulu Lemons... and I'm not sure how I feel about book Andrea. This is one of my favorite movies of all time (literally wrote a college essay on it), and in the movie Andrea was a strong, independent person. So far in the book she seems like a fumbling idiot. 😕 Has anyone else read this & seen the movie? Thoughts?

Tera0707 This is one of those rare cases where the movie is better than the book, in my opinion. (It‘s one of my and my daughter‘s favorite movies too!) 6y
