Getting the chance of a lifetime to become an intern at a top teen magazine could open many doors for Harper Anderson. Too bad it begins with a lie. In Little Black Dresses, Little White Lies, witty and intelligent Harper lands this position by writing a sample teen dating blog post using her best friend’s reality as her own. Now in Manhattan at Shift headquarters, Harper is expected to write a blog every Wednesday that’s as juice and drama filled about the teen dating scene as her application’s sample. The problem is that Harper has had no real dating life. She doesn’t go out of her shell. Nor does she fit into New York style. Her aunt, whom she will live with for the summer, helps her continue the facade by dressing Harper to look her part with designer clothing. Harper must them continue to tell little white lies as she gets to know the other interns she’s competing with for the call back next summer. Harper learns to think on her feet and navigate the dog-eat-dog path of interns while cracking her own shell along the way. Ultimately though, the lying can not last and a pivotal weekend when her best friend surprises her with a visit sends the book spiraling to its conclusion. Chic lit at its best, this title has romances, budding feminism, and inner turmoil that will keep a reader entertained. Recommended for high school and public libraries.
