Summary

Bitch Is the New Black follows Andrews-sexy, single, and a self-described smart-ass-on her trip from kidnapped daughter of a lesbian to Washington, D. C., political reporter who can't remember a single senator's name. Told in Andrews's singular voice, this addictive memoir explores the roller coaster of being educated and single while trying to become an ôactual adultö and find love. In these unafraid and often brutally frank essays, she comes to realize that being a bitch is sometimes the best way to be ... except, of course, when it's not. Book jacket.
