"For a mean-spirited "Gotcha!" of a book, one that offers little indication that the author could interestingly sustain a gossip-free narrative, The Devil Wears Prada is most unseemly when it comes to literature."
   —The New York Times

"Is there something inherently less vain or self-involved about a careerist with designs on The New Yorker than one aspiring to climb the ladder at Vogue, er, Runway? Weisberger seems to think so, and this is one of the main problems of this callow book."
   —The New York Times

"With her fatuous, clunky second novel, Everyone Worth Knowing, which is spiked with more product placements than the movie Herbie: Fully Loaded, Weisberger is unlikely to silence her detractors."
   —The New York Times

"As we witness Andrea's self-pitying diatribe on the superficial fashion world, and how it takes over her life and makes her forsake her relationships with her family, her best friend and her boyfriend, the voice falls flat and begins to drone around page seventy-five."
   —BookReporter.com

"In effect, all Weisberger achieves is to transform the tedium of being an assistant into the tedium of reading about it."
   —Time Out New York
