LoveReading Says

Asha Ray and Cyrus Jones marry 2 months after they met the second time. 13 years after the first time when Asha was in love with Cyrus in ninth grade. Cyrus stepped into her brain at college like she was putting on a really great pair of sneakers for the first time. And she was hooked.

Asha is a genius computer scientist who has an idea to create a social networking app that has the potential to change the media landscape forever.  WAI is born from her laptop: focusing on interests, beliefs and passions not likes and dislikes. Her algorithm grabs the attention of a secretive tech incubator who invite them in, they become Utopians and it all changes.

So relevant, of-the-moment, so fresh and modern, I am desperate to read more of Anam. Aptly titled The Startup Wife: How to Succeed in Business and Marriage at the Same Time, this novel features the highs and lows of it all: the pressure of a startup, the work, love, ambition, sex and lack of balance. All wrapped up in an oh-so-readable and fabulously funny package.

It’s about finding your voice and never being “smalled down”, about finding your tribe, your feminist cavalry. As I wiped away a few tears and my book hangover began I stroked the cover and marvelled at the brilliance of it all. A book I wish I’d written.
