Praise for The Manny:
"Holly Peterson writes about the rich with acute understanding and a drop-dead eye for detail. The funniest, sexiest ride in the limo lane since The Bonfire of the Vanities."---Tina Brown, author of The Diana Chronicles
"My summer recommendation: take The Manny to the beach." --- Deirdre Donahue, USA Today
"Holly Peterson has a keen observer's eye for the frailties foibles, and frivolities of present-day upper-class life among the rich of New York City. She understands her territory well and writes with authority." --- Dominick Dunne, author of A Season in Purgatory
"Money, Manners, Mannys: Holly Peterson's debut is a fabulously sharp skewering of the silly-rich in New York. Observing a Park Avenue working mom falling for the help had me both touched and tormented with laughter. I couldn't put it down. We should all get a Manny right now." - - - Plum Sykes, author of Bergdorf Blondes
"Holly Peterson takes us on a locomotive tour through the living rooms of the Upper East Side and the newsrooms of the media elite. The trip is sexy, hilarious, and heart-wrenching." - - - Candace Bushnell, author of Sex in the City and Lipstick Jungle
"I leapt on The Manny devoured it in one sitting. It's a riveting portrait of millionaires' life on 'the Grid,' full of eye-watering details. And it made me instantly want to hire a male manny . . . for me!" - - - Sophie Kinsella, author of Remember Me?
"Quite knowing and funny, too." - - - New York Daily News
Here are all the praises for The Manny book. Believe me, if you get it, you won't regret it! =) Enjoy it, people!
