HBL Note: Described as Younger meets The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, Shauna Robinson’s DEBUT novel (yay! Featuring debut authors brings me so much joy!) isn’t the light and breezy read you might expect. It grapples with themes of racial equity, opportunity, and stability in the workplace as well as happiness, self-worth, and positive mental health, in work, relationships and life. The story follows Nora Hughes as she tries to find her way in the world of publishing. Scroll down to read more.

From the publisher:
Meet Nora Hughes―the overworked, underpaid, last bookish assistant standing. At least for now.
When Nora landed an editorial assistant position at Parsons Press, it was her first step towards The Dream Job. Because, honestly, is there anything dreamier than making books for a living? But after five years of lunch orders, finicky authors, and per my last emails, Nora has come to one grand conclusion: Dream Jobs do not exist.
With her life spiraling and the Parsons staff sinking, Nora gets hit with even worse news. Parsons is cutting her already unlivable salary. Unable to afford her rent and without even the novels she once loved as a comfort, Nora decides to moonlight for a rival publisher to make ends meet...and maybe poach some Parsons' authors along the way.
But when Andrew Santos, a bestselling Parsons author no one can afford to lose is thrown into the mix, Nora has to decide where her loyalties lie. Her new Dream Job, ever-optimistic Andrew, or...herself and her future.
