Book 2 of the Fabulous Enough series is here.
Almost Fabulous
“We’re not broken. We’re just on an infinite beta release.”
The crew is back. After a viral podcast and a brutal, anonymous betrayal fractures the group, the friends must find a new way to be real… even if it breaks them.
“Flowers are gauche unless they’re peonies and the invoice is in someone else’s name.”
— Vera
Failure is just burnout with better lighting.
Book 1: Fabulous Enough
Meet Vera, Cleo, Luca, and Dina. They’re broke, “out-of-stock in relevance”, and 48 hours away from homelessness. From faking their way into the Carraway Gala to launching a podcast about their failures, they’re desperately trying to rebrand their messy lives as an “authentic journey.”
Book 2: Almost Fabulous
The story continues. After their podcast goes viral, a shocking betrayal fractures the group. They must navigate the fallout and discover if their friendship can be mended—or if ‘fabulous’ was just a brand all along.
The Fabulous Enough series is a sharp, witty look at four friends discovering that “almost” is the new “perfect,” and the only thing holding them together is their shared history.
Get Hooked
“The espresso machine screamed like it was in labor, and then died mid–death rattle.”
“Pronounced,” Cleo said, standing in the doorway in a T-shirt that read I’M NOT LATE, I’M VINTAGE. Her eyeliner made an argument for squatter’s rights. “I’ll send flowers.”
Vera didn’t look up from her phone. “Flowers are gauche unless they’re peonies and the invoice is in someone else’s name.”
Meet the Crew
“We’re in our ‘half-past’ era.”
Vera
“The PR queen whose ‘hair was a thesis; her lipstick was an intention.'”
Cleo
“The designer whose eyeliner ‘made an argument for squatter’s rights.'”
Luca
“The photographer who ‘realized I was photographing ghosts.'”
Dina
“The guru recording a ‘guided meditation on abundance’ while being sued for vibes.”
“The party didn’t end, it just got a dress code.”
— From the “Half-Past Fabulous” Podcast
The Hangover Essays
“The breakout, anonymous Substack column exploring ‘notes on being fabulous after the party ends,’ and ‘why honesty is the most dangerous substance in Manhattan.'”
The Influencer’s Funeral
“We’re not going to her funeral. We’re going to the last good networking event she’ll ever host.” A memorial where “death is just the ultimate rebrand.”
The Soft Launch
Cleo’s “Unfinished Business” fashion comeback. A collection featuring a jacket with a “hidden pocket for ’emergency delusion.'”
Praise for the Series
“Absolutely hilarious. A razor-sharp, witty, and surprisingly tender look at what it means to be a glorious failure. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so I did both.”
— Culture Blog Weekly
“The dialogue is so good it hurts. Finally, a book that understands that friendship is just a long-running group text about shared trauma and where to get dumplings.”
