The Memo (Paperback): Lauren Mechling, Rahcel Dodes The Memo (Paperback)

Do you ever feel like you have no idea what you're doing in life - and wonder if you just didn't get the memo?

Jenny Green is dreading her Class of 2007 reunion. While her friends are killing it, Jenny's promising career as an artisanal baker went up in flames (literally) and her deadbeat, commitment-phobe boyfriend is cheating on her with their swishy-ponytailed neighbour. She feels like she didn't get the memo... As it turns out, she didn't.

Begrudgingly back at university, she receives a text from an unlisted number: Jenny Green - please collect your memo. Hidden on her old campus is a secret female-led organisation providing memos to select students; blueprints for success.

The first time around, Jenny didn't receive hers. Now she's being given a second chance - the opportunity to rewrite her past, undo her worst mistakes and fix her mess of a life. But at what price?

A hilarious, achingly relatable, bittersweet and addictive page-turner about lifelong friendships, new loves, second chances and what it really means to live your best life. The Memo will enchant fans of Dolly Alderton's Ghosts and Rebecca Serle's In Five Years.

After two glorious (though somewhat hectic) semesters with her dad in New York City, Mimi must make good on her promise to her parents: summer break with her mom. But it seems going back to her cozy old life in Houston isn't in the cards. Instead, she's dragged off to Berlin, where her mother's been offered a fellowship. After a few weeks of a nightmare nanny job, it becomes clear that Mimi's European vacation isn't much of a vacation after all. On the verge of a nervous breakdown, she receives a call from Lily Morton, her friend from New York, who invites her to London, where an internship at a family friend's magazine awaits. Soon Mimi is at it again--living it up with glamorous friends, pursuing a new crush, and chasing down celebrities at her very entertaining job. For a while, Mimi's convinced she has it made. Never before has fitting in been so easy. If only it could stay that way. Mimi may have gotten a handle on the Empire State--but that's nothing compared to the state of the empire!

After a tumultuous first semester, Mimi Schulman thinks she's ready to give social climbing a rest and settle into the groove of New York's wacky Baldwin School. She's eager to start over with her friends, reconnect with her dad, and make headway with Max Roth--the hottest guy in tenth grade.
But when an assignment for the school paper turns scandalous and spirals out of control, Mimi finds little time to enjoy her new and improved existence. Instead, she embarks on a roller coaster ride through the underbelly of the New York art world, from the VIP lounge of a shady nightclub to a private Caribbean island populated with washed-up TV stars and fifteen-second celebrities. As answers keep slipping through her fingers, Mimi begins to wonder if she'll ever manage to pin down the story and get on with her life. And if so, will her life still be there?
All Q, No A is a touching comedy that will appeal to anyone who knows what it's like have more questions than answers. Fans of Mimi Schulman beware! This book will keep you screaming with laughter long after you've turned the last page.

The Rise and Fall of a 10th-Grade Social Climber (Paperback): Lauren Mechling, Laura Moser The Rise and Fall of a 10th-Grade Social Climber (Paperback)

After the collapse of her parents' marriage, Mimi Schulman leaves her mother in Houston to look after her befuddled photographer father in New York. Too preoccupied with family problems to think much about her new life, Mimi's first hour at The Baldwin School--an institution where teachers offer psychoanalysis in lieu of grades and students hold cocktail parties in the bathroom between classes--leaves her spinning.
When Sam, her childhood best friend, bets her she can't befriend the "cool girls," Mimi accepts the challenge, only to discover that social climbing in New York is no easy task. Fitting in with the blond, all-American popular girls back in Texas was nothing compared to joining Baldwin's clique of raccoon-eyed waifs.
Rubbing shoulders with the offspring of diplomats and celebrities, all with secrets and dysfunctions that put her own domestic worries to shame, Mimi finds herself in one bizarre situation to the next--a fake-ID deli, a topless bar, a jacuzzi in Trump Tower--and in the position of winning a bet that threatens to make her lose sight of herself.
A coming-of-age story about friendship and betrayal, about brutal honesty and its consequences, The Rise and Fall of a 10th-Grade Social Climber is a novel with heart and a wicked sense of humor.
