'We are so ready for this book. Exploring the exhausting push-pull of trying to pin down a
career you love but that doesn't love you back Buchanan's book is set to capture the zeitgeist
as so many of us question where we're at' Stylist careering (verb) 1. working endlessly for a
job you used to love and now resent entirely 2. moving in a way that feels out of control *
Imogen has always dreamed of writing for a magazine. Infinite internships later Imogen dreams
of any job. Writing her blog around double shifts at the pub is neither fulfilling her
creatively nor paying the bills. Harri might just be Imogen's fairy godmother. She's moving
from the glossy pages of Panache magazine to launch a fierce feminist site The Know. And she
thinks Imogen's most outrageous sexual content will help generate the clicks she needs. But
neither woman is aware of the crucial thing they have in common. Harri at the other end of her
career has also been bitten and betrayed by the industry she has given herself to. Will she
wake up to the way she's being exploited before her protégé realises that not everything is
copy? Can either woman reconcile their love for work with the fact that work will never love
them back? Or is a chaotic rebellion calling... Hilarious and unflinchingly honest Careering
takes a hard look at the often toxic relationship working women have with their dream jobs. 'A
love story about work self-worth and modern womanhood Careering is quite simply the
funniest novel I've read all year.' Nell Frizzell author of The Panic Years 'There is no
writer out there who can make you laugh and cry quite like Daisy Buchanan. Careering is a
compelling and thoughtful read that every woman (and man) should have on their shelves.' Lucy
Vine author of Bad Choices 'Full of brilliant characters loveable chaos and a world of
magazine nostalgia. If you've ever had a job suck your soul even slightly you'll love it.'
Emma Gannon author of Olive 'Blisteringly funny and painfully perceptive. Daisy has that magic
gift of capturing the nuance and detail of a very specific world in such a way that it feels
universally eternally relatable.' Lauren Bravo author of How To Break Up With Fast Fashion
'Careering is instantly addictive. It's fresh and raw and mesmerising filled with humour and
heart. Without a doubt this is the book I'll be shouting about to everyone this year as a
must-read.' Beth Reekles author of The Kissing Booth 'Careering will strike such a chord with
anyone who has ever walked to a job interview in trainers with a tote bag containing heels over
their shoulder feeling like an imposter.' Emma Hughes author of No Such Thing As Perfect 'So
perceptive and wise about the media privilege the differing but equally troubling pressures
that women of all ages face while still being moving laugh out loud funny and inspiring. I
loved it.' Louise O'Neill author of Idol 'A great great book. Daisy Buchanan has that special
something that makes a wonderful popular fiction writer - acute observational skills huge
empathy and a perfect balance of light and shade. I loved loved loved Careering.' Marian Keyes
author of Again Rachel
