12 posts | 5 read | 10 to read
A literary novel set in 1995 New York, "Love Slave" follows Sybil Weatherfield?her generationOCOs Dorothy Parker?and her strange friends as they defy chick-lit expectations (though theyOCOre unaware that theyOCOre doing so). Sybil is an office temp by day and a columnist by night for New York Shock, a chatty rag (her column is called ?Abscess, OCO which is a wound that never heals). Her friends include a paper-pusher for a human rights organization, and the lead singer of a local rock band called Glass Half Empty. Full of cultural detail, mid-nineties observations, and early adulthood anxieties, itOCOs ultimately an ironic look at what it means to be a love slave. "

No Lie: That chapter in LOVE SLAVE called "The Missing Tampon Story" was inspired by a real event that took place here. Yes, I went there. Low point.

Not as many books as I'd like. My long commute has changed my schedule and I have less time for sitting and reading. Taking full advantage of Audible, but man, I do love to hold books and turn their pages and smell that delicious smell. ❤️

So much to say in only 300 characters. Ridiculously smart, ironic writing about Sybil Weatherfield, temp & writer, and her eclectic mix of friends. 90s Manhattan as the pulsing center of the universe for these 30-something seekers of truth and 24-hour-diners. Dripping with pop culture and wit.

JillMoore1226 @JenniferSpiegel loved it! ❤️ 8y

I'm loving Love Slave and all of it's New York-ness. It makes me long for a trip to Manhattan for the clubs, the food, the sights and smells and, most of all, the people watching. And how cool am I that I know the author @JenniferSpiegel

Zelma That is super cool! I love books where the locale is so evocative that it takes you right there. Or when a place is its own character in a book. 8y
MarlysWS I'm adding this to my list! 8y
