Helena Andrews: Bitch is the New Black

Helena Andrews is young, smart, successful and black. She's an Ivy League graduate with great jobs who finds herself asking, "Can a strong, successful and single black woman ever find love?" The answer comes in her hilarious, tell-it-like-it-is new book, Bitch is the New Black, whose title comes from a now-famous Saturday Night Live sketch and writer-comedienne Tina Fey. Already optioned as a feature film, the book deftly captures the author's lively spirit as she describes growing up with her pot-smoking mother, navigating a mostly white workplace and getting a date with one of President Obama's body guards, Reggie Love.
