"Weisberger gained fame as an outsider, a New York naïf who dared to pillory one of the pillars of the fashion industry..."
   —USA Today

"Witty, clever and fun to read."
   —Publishers Weekly

"Chasing Harry Winston...[is] fun, frolicsome and just clever enough to keep even the high-minded reader interested..."
   —The Baltimore Sun

"Lauren Weisberger has produced a work of trash fiction of such unimpeachable quality—I enjoyed every page—that the golden girls of the form can hang up their spurs..."
   —The Atlantic Monthly

"Forget trivial, forget fluff—this is smart, sassy, and more upper class, designer fun than a trolley dash around Harvey Nicks."
   —The Daily Record (Scotland)

"Hello? You were expecting Hemingway? It's the rare reader who's going to seek life lessons in a little romp of a book about the fashion industry. Weisberger's succeeded in what she set out to do—pen a paean to the normal girl trapped in a size-0 Style Central. It's a devilishly engaging read."
   —Austin-American Statesman

"Bring on the screeching fashion whores—this is pure gossipy pleasure. If there's even a hint of truth to the torture Andy and her colleagues are forced to suffer under the malicious Miranda, Weisberger has achieved success. The Devil Wears Prada is a juicy dish that lives up to its pre-publishing buzz."
   —Chicago Sun-Times

"Fashion cognoscenti will take devilish delight in putting real names, faces and foibles to Weisberger's characters. But even readers who have never paged through Vogue, or heard of its uber-chic editor, or coveted a Chanel suit or Prada purse, will get plenty of chuckles—and insights—from this deliciously spiteful tale."
   —Detroit Free Press

"In her debut novel, The Devil Wears Prada, author Lauren Weisberger crafts a glamorous, gossipy novel that's both hilarious and heartening."
   —The Sacramento Bee

"I find this entire book irresistibly funny."
   —Liz Smith

"Andy's mishaps will undoubtedly elicit laughter from readers, and the story's even got a virtuous little moral at its heart. Weisberger has penned a comic novel that manages to rise to the upper echelons of the chick-lit genre."
   —Publishers Weekly

"Weisberger, a twentysomething herself, writes with a young, fun sensibility."
   —The Miami Herald

"Weisberger is a great social critic and a talented writer..."
   —The Freelance-Star

"...in addition to the cleverly written and on-point descriptions of the glitzy, invitation-only red carpet events attended by—you guessed it—everyone worth knowing, Weisberger tells us a solid story about a young woman figuring out how to live life on her own terms."
   —Philadelphia Inquirer

"In true romance fashion, the troll blogger gets her comeuppance, the caddish men are jettisoned, and Bette gets to be with the people who are really worth knowing."
   —New York Post
