Because She Can (2007)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Release Date: Feb 05, 2007; Writer: Bridie Clark; Genre: Fiction; Publisher: Warner Books

Bridie Clark's Because She Can is a thinly veiled roman à clef by a former employee of controversial publisher Judith Regan — think The Devil Signs O.J.

Source of Angst
Besides a spirit-crushing boss? A love triangle.

Fashion Pinnacle
The perfect Madison Avenue wedding dress for the perfect Park Avenue fiancé.

Lowdown
Pop culture rubberneckers will enjoy the bilious dope on Regan — um, ''Vivian Grant.'' While Clark's pacing is brisk, both her rants and romance lack nuance. B
