Lily King wrote Writers And Lovers, a novel about a young women named Casey Peabody. Casey has been working on her novel for 6 years while working as a waitress and drowning in student loan debt. Despite saving costs by renting a moldy small room attached to a garage in Boston and biking to and from work, she is just not getting ahead. I was just in Boston last November so I know the bridge she biked across to get to work. On top of that she is grieving the death of her mother and her estrangement from her father. Then she meets two men who are interested in her romantically. Her job as a waitress at a fancy Boston restaurant is not going well. Then, gradually, things start going better for Casey. I liked Casey from the start. The best part of this book is the ending. The ending was very dramatic and satisfying.
