Having left her Berkeley, California, home for an eight-week summer internship at a New York City fashion magazine, Mel tries to cope with her new roommates and with city life as she follows her dream of becoming a writer.

Grade 7–10—In this first volume of a four-part series, Melanie leaves Berkeley for her summer internship at the fashion magazine Flirt. Once there, she meets the other interns and her killer boss, Josephine Bishop. Late and underdressed, the teen makes a bad impression. To win back Josephine's favor, she tries to hunt down a "real" story. The boss's niece, uber-catty Genevieve, pulls Mel's strings in an effort to get her fired. Everything and everyone in this lighter-than-air story is a stereotype. Even the cities can't escape. Berkeley is all granola or "crunch," and New York is all quick-talking fashionistas. The interns include the English socialite, the Japanese bad girl, and the Latina bombshell. Melanie herself is painfully naive. The only time her personality shows is in her diary entries that, compared to the rest of the story, are funny. This book lacks the cruelty of Lisi Harrison's "Clique" series (Little, Brown) and the heart of Ann Brashares's "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" books (Delacorte).—Sadie Mattox, DeKalb County Public Library, Decatur, GA
