Sure, she's giving up her dream of being a famous novelist, but in exchange she'll find a stable income, job satisfaction, and maybe even love. At least that's how it'd work if she were a character in one of her novels. In real life, she's busy coping with twenty yelling first-graders, a teacher's lounge full of nasty coworkers, and a series of romantic misadventures that fall far, far short of the real thing. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n Charlotte's struggle to navigate the waters of a new career, a new single life, and the loss of her identity as a writer make \u003ci\u003eSecond Draft of My Life\u003c\/i\u003e a funny, compulsively readable gem. From an author \u003ci\u003eThe Boston Globe\u003c\/i\u003e applauded as \"very, very good on the business of falling in and out of love,\" it is part romantic comedy, part manual for living, and wholly triumphant.","brand":"Print on demand - Ships in 1 to 3 months","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46915442835614,"sku":"HPC-9780743436700","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780743436700.jpg?v=1780036824","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780743436700","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
