      Praise for Jennifer Oko’s Gloss

      “Jennifer Oko’s Gloss is a very funny novel set in the parallel universe of morning television. Filled with details and gossip about what really goes on behind the cozy, coffee-tabled sets of the national morning shows and the people who host them, this story of a young producer caught in a web of journalistic ethics and political intrigue is both about and written by an insider who has lived to tell the tale.”

      —Laura Zigman, author of Animal Husbandry and Piece of Work

      “After finishing Gloss by Jennifer Oko, I felt as if I had finished a dish made up of fresh, seasonal ingredients that filled me up without slowing me down.”

      —Christian Science Monitor, Reader’s Pick

      “Comical, fast paced and full of insider gossip, Gloss is an entertaining read written by a TV news veteran who’s now a producer for CBS’s The Early Show. For anyone who has ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of news reporting, this book will fill you in and keep you entertained.”

      —Kristin Harmel, author of The Blonde Theory

      “Jennifer Oko’s novel Gloss [is] a peek behind the scenes of morning television…. Even though it is a serious story, the novel is a light and easy read, with humor present on every page.”

      —The Oklahoman

      —Moderngirlstyle.com

      “This is one book you have to keep checking to make sure you are reading fiction. The story is engrossing…fast paced, riveting and one you just can’t put down, with an insight to morning news programs that gives you a whole new way to look at them while having your morning coffee and muffin.”

      —Affaire de Coeur [five stars]

      “A damn good book.”

      —Modern Women’s Fiction

      “Oko’s biting humor, à la Murphy Brown, makes this book very difficult to put down.”

      —The Book and Cranny

      “Often laugh-out-loud funny, but sometimes downright scary, this bigger-than-life romp will probably give more than one early morning news show staffer pause. Some of the characterizations—and complications—may be a little over the top, but readers will probably be too amused to take much notice.”

      —Romantic Times BOOKreviews

      “You won’t be able to put [it] down. Filled with tons of fun details gathered, no doubt, by the author’s own experiences in morning television. You’ll have a blast reading Gloss, and not just for the guessing game of ‘who’s really who’ in the large cast of characters that inhabit Annabelle’s world. A deliciously dishy and irresistible tale!”

      —Brenda Janowitz, author of Scot on the Rocks

      “A humorous send-up of the TV industry and today’s pop culture where fame is an end in itself. Ms. Oko’s eye is sharp and her pen as sharp, as she bares the quirks and flaws in an industry she knows from the inside. Gloss is an entertaining, delightfully irreverent, and enlightening work.”
