Helena Andrews

On June 1st, 2010 HarperCollins will publish Helena Andrews hotly anticipated collection of essays, BITCH IS THE NEW BLACK. Told in her singular voice, BITCH IS THE NEW BLACK follows Helenasexy, single, and a self-described smart-asson her trip from kidnapped daughter of the town lesbian to hotshot political reporter who cant remember a single senators name.Helena now writes a weekly column called Single-Minded on being free, single and disengaged for TheRoot.com.Greys Anatomy creator, Shonda Rhimes, called BITCH outrageously funny and heartbreakingly honest. Kirkus Reviews wrote that Andrews is a scathingly witty authorwith wry astuteness. I didnt like this book. I loved it, said Angela Nissel, best-selling author of Mixed and The Broke Diaries.I slept with it and pretended it was my husband since statistics say Ill probably be a spinster. I'm giving copies to all of my girlfriends who have crazy families and love lives that revolve around IM."
