A month or so ago, Alison Pace was cool enough to send me an advanced copy of her book, If Andy Warhol Had a Girlfriend. I realize this isn’t much notice (as in, enough to go go out, read the book, like it, and want to join us) but tonight, Ari and I are heading over to her reading at Lenox Hill Bookstore. There will be the drinking of cocktails afterward, if, you know, you need encouragement.
If Andy Warhol Had a Girlfriend, by the way, was a great read. It’s chick lit, of course. And say what you will about the genre , there can be some really smart, really sympathetic characters in chick lit. Alison’s book is proof. Heavy on the humor (there’s this thing with miniature schnauzers) and light on wallowing, it was the perfect companion to my wintry stay-under-the-covers weekend at home.

Anyway, that’s where we’ll be tonight. If I can find Ari. I’m beginning to believe she took up permanent residence in Florida with OJ Simpson. You never know with that girl.
I always like to hear about a new book. Thanks.

You gals have fun ;)
