This book was so fun! Sally Milz is a writer for The Night Owls (TNO)--think a fictionalized Saturday Night Live. When smoking hot musician Noah Brewster comes on the show as that week's host, Sally pitches a skit called the Danny Horst Rule, named after her office mate and fellow writer Danny Horst, about how beautiful, famous women end up dating the slovenly male writers at TNO, but famous men never date the slovenly female TNO writers. This book was funny, thought-provoking, at times laugh-out-loud funny, and just a ton of fun to read. You root for the characters, as they grow and learn. I loved the fictionalized look at what goes into writing a show like Saturday Night Live. Sittenfeld has clearly done her homework. If I had a completely free day, this is the type of book that I would have read in one day.
