Why this must be read:

Because it's about fashion, and about clothes, and about wanting what you can't have. It's a romance written from the outside, and it's a brilliant character piece for Emily, who doesn't get nearly enough love.

And there's a cat. It's sort of a metaphor, but also sort of a cat.


It starts with what appears, at the time, to be an ending.

"Don't hang up!" says practically the last voice Emily ever expects to hear again, right as Emily's about to do just exactly that. Later, Emily will wonder if any of it would have happened if she hadn't allowed Andrea to continue speaking, if she'd simply hung up in her ear as she'd every intention of doing. However, there's something about the tone of Andrea's voice, a certain whiny familiar little note that gets on Emily's last nerve, just as it always has. But it also causes Emily to pause, just as it always has. And that's when Andrea jumps in and tells her the rest.
