Product Information

Harri, at the other end of her career, has also been bitten and betrayed by the industry she has given herself to. While in parallel we learn about her boss (who in Imogen's eyes is immensely successful) going through similar struggles.

While it would’ve been nice to see these areas further developed, Buchanan is at her best poising those existential, quarter-life-crisis questions through a tongue-in-cheek, humorous tone.After two years of lockdowns and working from home I think a lot of people can relate to the tag line of 'Imogen has a toxic relationship with her job'. Instead she’s tasked with creating an online magazine aimed at young women - or ‘The Girl’ as Harri likes think of her. However when the meeting finally comes, Harri realises she is being pushed out and being given the task of running "The Know", a brand new online magazine.

And I understand that as Imogen is a sex blogger, sex has to be a vital part of her story and personality, however, I think there were times when the theme was used a little too much, getting out of place in the story and even overshadowing previous events.Apparently the dozens of unpaid internships where she was treated badly were what "made" her who she is today. This all jarred with her sex blog, a girl so confident she would publish her sex life for all to read, including her possibly violent father. Careering is a compelling and thoughtful read that every woman (and man) should have on their shelves. We follow Imogen; a 20-something struggling intern working a fashion magazine but who runs a successful blog on the Side in her free time all about Sex and relationships, we also follow Harri; A 40-something woman who has just been passed up for the role of editor in chief and she is now trying to launch an online feminist magazine.
