The Devil Wears Prada

Corrected entry: The book keeps contradicting itself on how long one has to work as Miranda's assistant. It's one year as junior assistant and then one year as senior assistant, but Andy keeps saying she only has to work one year. If she only works one year then suddenly there's no senior assistant when Emily gets her promotion.

Correction: Emily is completing a three year job, which is why she works as both junior and senior assistant. Andy is only working for one year. Three years is enough to get any job at Runway, but as Andy observes, she doesn't want to work at Runway, and hopefully, one year will suffice for the New Yorker.

Factual error: In Chapter 7, Andrea's boyfriend Alex sends her an e-mail to tell her that his six-year-old student has slashed a classmate on the arm and that he will have to miss their planned dinner in order to deal with the situation. Andrea thinks about how bad she feels for Alex and his fourth grade student. Fourth graders are 9 or 10 years old, not 6.
