In 4 Blondes, readers were introduced to the stunning blonde Janey Wilcox...

'Trading Up' by Candice BushnellAuthor Candace Bushnell (of Sex and the City fame) brings the model/actress back for more mingling and social climbing among New York's elite in this tour de force.

Life is looking up for Janey. Her Victoria's Secret modeling career is paying off in party invitations and society column mentions.

As entertaining as it is searingly observant and bitingly witty, the novel takes aim at a world in which one can never be rich enough, well dressed enough, or high enough in the social pecking order.

Bushnell lovingly skewers a society she knows well, and brings readers inside the heads and conversations of characters who could have come right from the pages of Vanity Fair.

Readers will love watching Janey as she rises, falls, and picks herself up again and again.
