Well, I am feeling bounce-back-ish, but also furious and heartbroken and kind of as though my trust has been betrayed, but since none of those things is going to help me decide what to do next (and besides, to paraphrase Sam on Sex and the City, no one wants to hire the sad girl), I think my best ally is the resiliency.
And you've recced/given far too many excellent books for me not to take your recs very seriously! I'll look for it this week and start reading, and thank you! (and I'm glad to hear that you're still happy!)
I have a rec for you, too, as it happens, but it's a frivolous one. It's called Secret Society Girl, by Diana Peterfreund, a novel about a girl who's inducted into a Skull and Bones-type society (well, let's not tiptoe, here--it is Skull and Bones, only it's called "Rose and Grave" at "Eli University") and the various hijinks that ensue, and it's a total beach read, something along the lines of Legally Blonde. I have a proof copy--you want it?
