A delightfully dishy novel about the all-time most impossible boss in the history of impossible bosses.

Andrea Sachs, a small-town girl fresh out of college, lands the job “a million girls would die for.” Hired as the assistant to Miranda Priestly, the high-profile, fabulously successful editor of Runway magazine, Andrea finds herself in an office that shouts Prada! Armani! Versace! at every turn, a world populated by impossibly thin, heart-wrenchingly stylish women and beautiful men clad in fine-ribbed turtlenecks and tight leather pants that show off their lifelong dedication to the gym. With breathtaking ease, Miranda can turn each and every one of these hip sophisticates into a scared, whimpering child.

THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA gives a rich and hilarious new meaning to complaints about “The Boss from Hell.” Narrated in Andrea’s smart, refreshingly disarming voice, it traces a deep, dark, devilish view of life at the top only hinted at in gossip columns and over Cosmopolitans at the trendiest cocktail parties. From sending the latest, not-yet-in-stores Harry Potter to Miranda’s children in Paris by private jet, to locating an unnamed antique store where Miranda had at some point admired a vintage dresser, to serving lattes to Miranda at precisely the piping hot temperature she prefers, Andrea is sorely tested each and every day—and often late into the night with orders barked over the phone. She puts up with it all by keeping her eyes on the prize: a recommendation from Miranda that will get Andrea a top job at any magazine of her choosing. As things escalate from the merely unacceptable to the downright outrageous, however, Andrea begins to realize that the job a million girls would die for may just kill her. And even if she survives, she has to decide whether or not the job is worth the price of her soul.

The audiobook narration was impeccable!! Made the story even more entertaining. The book is so different from the movie (which I adore) and the characters are for the most part, sooooooo annoying. Overall Andy’s day-to-day ridiculous work tasks, schedule and observations were entertaining but I don’t think I could’ve actually read the book.

Highly entertaining

The narrator was amazing, nothing at all against the woman bringing the story to life.
Having said that, as a grown woman who has had to work crappy jobs, and had to fight to get where I am in life… Andy’s nonstop whining about how hard her job is got on my nerves FAST. She is a 23 year old just getting her first job after graduating college… suck it up, you privileged whiny baby.
And! Her boyfriend and friend are horrible people. This job is a literal once in a life time opportunity. If you can’t be accommodating for your friend who is working a shit job, you’re a terrible friend.
I can’t believe I wasted an Audible credit to buy this book. What a piece of garbage.

Andrea Sachs might be my least favourite character. Ever.
