Abstract
Emily and Jessamine Bach are opposites in every way:
Twenty-eight-year-old Emily is the CEO of Veritech,
twenty-three-year-old Jess is an environmental activist and graduate
student in philosophy. Pragmatic Emily is making a fortune in Silicon
Valley, romantic Jess works in an antiquarian bookstore. Emily is
rational and driven, while Jess is dreamy and whimsical. Emily’s
boyfriend, Jonathan, is fantastically successful. Jess’s boyfriends, not
so much. (Amazon)
