SUMMARY:Katie Cotugno LA Book Launch for Meet the Benedettos
DESCRIPTION:The Ripped Bodice is hosting an LA launch event with Katie Cotugno (Fiction\, June 2015) on Friday\, December 8th at 7pm PST. She will be in conversation about her new novel\, Meet the Benedettos\, with author Elissa Sussman.  \n\n\n\nThere will be a book signing to follow. This is a ticketed event that includes a copy of the book. \n\n\n\nCan’t attend the event? Signed books are available for in-store pick-up and shipping here.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAn A-list movie star moves to Los Angeles—next door to a family of five eligible sisters—in this irresistible novel where The Kardashians meets Pride and Prejudice\, from the NYT bestselling author of Birds of California. \n\n\n\nEvery family is complicated\, and the Benedettos are no exception. A few years after a reality TV show skyrocketed them to pop-culture fame\, the five twenty-something sisters are living together in their parents’ crumbling McMansion\, nearly broke and teetering towards rock-bottom. Lilly\, the sensible second-eldest sister\, is all too aware that her family is viewed as a spectacle\, but she’s focused on holding herself and her family together\, and unlike her siblings she tends not to care what the world thinks. \n\n\n\nThe Benedettos’ fortunes finally appear to be brightening when Charlie Bingley\, the dashing star of Captain Fantastic\, moves into their Los Angeles neighborhood with his friend Will Darcy in tow. It isn’t long before Charlie falls for the warm and lovely eldest sister\, June. Lilly has no such luck: the arrogant and judgmental Will Darcy\, a man plagued by his own private demons\, seems ready to clash with her at every turn–yet the two can’t seem to stay away from each other. And while the Benedettos’ matriarch sets to work encouraging a potential match between Charlie and June\, there are plenty of others in the community who are determined to steer these eligible young men away from a ridiculous family of reality show has-beens… \n\n\n\nKatie Cotugno brings a big\, boisterous cast of characters to life in this deliciously sprawling LA story—a thoroughly fresh and modern tale about a family that’s “famous for being famous\,” the ways that preconceived notions make fools of us all\, and how unexpected romance can bloom despite the odds.
