What do you do when your little sister has been engaged six times, your mother is dating a man with a fish obsession, and your father has just run off with a distant cousin? Find out in Life a la Mode, the hilarious debut novel from an engaging and fresh new voice. Every girl in the city deserves a little something sweet.... Holly Phillips has reached a turning point. At thirty, she's got a small Greenwich Village apartment, a job editing books on whales that have more exciting lives than she does, great friends, and no love life--unless you count a co-worker too shy to say hello. All around her, people are actually doing things. Her younger sister has been engaged six times. Her newly divorced mom has just rediscovered sex. Her father is living in Houston with a distant cousin who wears pink ankle socks. And lately, her ex-husband has taken to showing up unexpectedly with strange food and even stranger motives. It's Holly's turn to get her just desserts--even if it means taking a few big risks...like standing up to her memo-happy boss. Finally having a heart-to-heart with her long-lost dad. Or accepting a date with her boy-next-door officemate, the one who blushes every time he hands her mail. The time has come for Holly to bid sayonara to Saturday night TV and have adventures of her own. Putting herself out there is scary, wild, and a little insane, but the only way to taste how sweet life can be is to take a great big bite...
