She's dependable, loyal and has a near-phobic aversion to conflict.But as her 30th birthday looms ever closer, Ellie starts to feel like she's lost the instruction manual to her life. She despises her job, shejust broke up with her boring boyfriend, and she's the last other high school friends to remain single. Worse, her dysfunctional family isdriving her nuts, and she's somehow become enslaved to her demanding pet pug Sally, who she suspects is the reincarnation of Pol Pot.Then one night, after turning her hair pink in a botched attempt to color it at home, Ellie rushes to the drugstore for emergency bleach,with Sally in tow. Sally is accosted by a smitten canine admirer ... but it's the dog's owner who captures Ellie's attention. Televisionnews anchor Ted Langston is witty, intriguing and sexy. The only catch? He's twice her age - and the only man on the planet who isn'tinterested in dating a younger woman. And no one, from Ellie's best friends to Ted's ex-wife, wants to see them get together.Pushing 30 asks the question of whether a Good Girl can find her happily-ever-after with the one man who's so wrong for her, he'sperfect...A smart, extremely funny book for the Helen Fielding set.
