New Blog Post by Vivienne So
Contemporary Romance · Portland · 2010

New Blog Post

Amanda Lin has a blog for everything: the bad dates, the almost-moments, the coworker she absolutely should not be thinking about. What the blog doesn't say is messier. She's still trying to pull free from someone who knew exactly how to make her doubt her own judgment. The coworker in question is unavailable in the most inconvenient way possible. And she's starting to suspect the life she's been living is a few Louboutin sizes too small.

Set in Portland in 2010, before the apps, before the algorithms, before everyone's instant commentary online, New Blog Post follows Amanda through the public version of her life and the private one running underneath it. One voice is funny and deflecting. The other is slowly learning to trust itself.

When her past walks back in and changes everything, Amanda has to decide what she actually wants. The story she's been telling, or the one she's finally ready to live.

A slow-burn contemporary romance about bad timing, good instincts, workplace drama, and the people who make space for you to figure out the difference.
