In this wickedly funny first novel - think Legally Blonde in Oxford - a young New York woman exchanges her corporate job for a year of books, blokes, beers, and new best friends in graduate school in England.Alexandra Brennan is fed up with her dead end New York City job - and even more fed up of running into her smug ex-boyfriend. So when he crosses the line by telling her that she'll never get into graduate school in the United Kingdom, that's precisely what she does.Armed with imported cigarettes and extra strength coffee, Alex leaves home and crosses the Atlantic to face all that Great Britain and grad school have to offer, including ill-considered romantic interludes, a red-headed nemesis with intellectual pretensions and ulterior motives, a preponderance of eighties music, and more books than she can possibly read in a year. What she discovers, however, is that instead of running away from home - she may have actually found it.
