Layla: Obsessive compulsive and clueless. Her chapters were the most boring thing to read until probably the very end; this is the same time she begins to really feel like a character.

I expected this book to be a collection of funny stories and profanities but to my delight it is surprisingly educational. The authors did a great job explaining the intricacies of capital markets and telling their life stories while keeping the reader engaged. Love how the associates in question established that the copy center and the formatting guys are the most important and routinely underavlued (and unpredictable) part of the deal. Yeah, too often how you work with them is the baseline for whenever your materials are ready (and if they are any good or all messed up).

Monkey Business - Penguin Random House

From the tiny mouse lemur to the mighty gorilla, learn how primates have evolved and adapted over time in Monkey Business. Immerse yourself in the heart of the forest to discover how primates live, move, eat, play and interact. Sarah was born in Montreal, Canada. After graduating with an honors degree in English literature from McGill University, she moved to Toronto to work for Harlequin Enterprises. While she never met Fabio, she used her romance publishing experiences to fuel her first novel Milkrun. As for Russ, he still keeps in touch with his girlfriend Sharon while simultaneously fooling around with Kimmy. I never understood why he appealed to Kimmy. He’s described as good-looking but personality-wise, he came across as boring and didn’t have much to offer. He wasn’t interesting, smart or funny. I liked how the author portrayed cheating as it was believable. I just wished there had been more focus on Russ, not because he’s fascinating but it would have been great to delve into his thoughts and understand him a little better.

A conversation with some juniors over lunch today reminded me of this book which I've read a long time ago when I landed myself into a front-line banking role. Strangely enough, it was my boss then who loaned this book to me. This book is a great illustration of the life of an investment banking analyst ... in the 1990's. DJL is now part of Citigroup and what remains of the team in this novel has largely been absorbed and digested. In 2015, very few bankers will live so wildly as Rolfe and Troob do in their novel. Four twenty-somethings are attending University of Connecticut Business School for different reason and you shift between their points of view so that each gets equal time. These four very different personalities meet and interact (often) on several level and exude normalcy and run of the mill.

Like most other young business school graduates, John Rolfe and Peter Troob thought that life in a major investment banking firm would make their wildest dreams come true -- it would be fast-paced, intellectually challenging, glamorous, and, best of all, lucrative.

One entire wall of my office was glass. It looked out onto two adjacent office buildings. At 3 A.M most of the offices in my building were dark. Any offices that were still lit up at 3 A.M demanded the attention of anybody who happened to be looking out a window of one of the adjacent buildings. To break it down, I was spanking off on a Broadway stage and everybody in the two adjacent buildings was my audience. Did any of my neighbors watch my performance? Was it worthy of a Tony? I don't know. If they did, their image of investment bankers must have been permanently disfigured" The second Monkey Business contemporary (after Playing Dirty) plunges right into the multifaceted liaison between Shaw Matthews and Cassidy Whalen, secret lovers and openly competitive business associates, as heartfelt emotions, misconceived assumptions, and natural disasters make for rough adventures. . . . Parker’s fast pace, rapier wit, and sharp dialogue perfectly merge with the simmering sexual tension in this lust-to-love tale that fans will devour.”—Publishers Weekly All the taxidermy specimens in the exhibition are natural casualties donated to National Museums Scotland.

Welcome to Monkey Bizness!I enjoyed this book. It was a light and easy read. Sometimes you just need to read a book without having to put alot of thought into it. It was written from four different POVs and the author did a good job of relaying the different characters personalities. Parker writes intense storylines that anyone can relate to. Her characters are complex, with long and sometimes turbulent pasts that they have overcome, that still continues to affect their present. . . . I cannot wait to see where she takes this new series.”—Fresh Fiction Kimmy is there to find a husband and an express lane to a cushier life but steps on her own feet a few times. Russ: Seems like a good guy, but is actually a grade A asshole. He also handles situations poorly, which is he's overall downfall.
