Authors: Lauren Weisberger

To my entire family at Simon & Schuster, thank you for all your brilliant work and creativity. Jon Karp, Jackie Seow,
Richard
Rhorer, Andrea DeWerd, Tracey Guest, Jennifer Garza,
Jessica
Zimmerman, and Felice Javitz: You are the best team an author could hope to have. Special thanks to Aja Pollock for all the ways you bettered the manuscript, and to Emily Graff for everything. Literally everything.

Thanks also to the terrific team at ICM: Maarten Kooij, Kristyn Keene, Josie Freedman, Heather Karpas, and Shira Schindel. I appreciate your savvy advice and terrific ideas (and of course, your group votes). Thanks for so expertly advising me in every conceivable situation.

To the whole amazing crew in London: a tremendous thanks for your boundless enthusiasm and fantastic ideas on everything from this book's inception to publication. We've been working together for over a decade now, and I feel so indebted to (and adoring of) my entire British family. At HarperCollins, thank you to Kate Elton, Lynne Drew, Claire Bord, and Louise Swannell. At Curtis Brown, a million thanks to Vivienne Schuster, Betsy
Robbins
, Sophie Baker, and Claire Nozieres.

To friends who were so generous with their time and
expertise
: Wendy Finerman, Hillary Irwin, Matthew Hiltzik, Josh Wolfe, Kyle White, Ludmilla Suvorova, and all my girlfriends, whether here in New York or elsewhere â I'm sending you each a huge hug and a plea to meet for drinks soon. Like, tomorrow.

Words can't express the gratitude I feel for Mallory Stehle and Tracy Larry, without whom this book would literally never have happened. You will be part of our family, always.

Mom, Dad, and Dana: I love you so much. Thanks for keeping me grounded and (semi) sane, and for all the ways you offer help, encouragement, and most important, a good laugh â and always have. Thank you to my whole family, for your constant cheering and understanding and always knowing when not to ask about work: Bernie, Judy, Seth, Sadie, Grandma, Papa, Jackie, Mel, Allison, Dave, Sydney and Emma. The past couple years have been crazy, and we never could have survived it (or enjoyed the wild ride) without each and every one of you.

And most of all, thank you to my husband, Mike, who makes
everything
possible. This book would have never been more than a fleeting fancy without your support, suggestions, ideas, and careful reads at every stage. Thank you isn't enough for all the ways, big and small, you make my life â all our lives â complete. To R and S, thank you for bringing me more joy than I ever could have imagined. It is impossible not to smile when you're near me. I love you three with all my heart.
