Breathe In, Cash Out: A Novel | Madeleine Henry
4 posts | 6 read
In this sizzling debut for fans of The Devil Wears Prada, Wall Street banking analyst Allegra Cobb plans to quit the minute her year-end bonus hits her account, finally pursuing her yoga career full-time. But when she forms an intense relationship with the #InstaFamous guru who may hold the ticket to the life Allegra's always wantedshe's not sure if she'll be able to keep her sanity intact (and her chakras aligned) until bonus day. Allegra Cobbs resume: Straight-A Princeton grad, second-year analyst at a top-tier bank, one-time American Yoga National Competition Champion. Allegra Cobbs reality: Spends twenty-four hours a day changing the colors on bar charts, overusing the word team, and daydreaming about quitting the minute her year-end bonus hits her account. She has no interest in the cutthroat banking worldshes going to launch her very own yoga practice. But her plan isnt quite as perfect as the beachfront yoga pictures she double-taps on Instagram. On top of the 100 emails an hour and coworkers already suspicious of her escape plan, Allegra's hard-driving single father has always expected fiercely high achievement above all else. That his daughter works on Wall Street means everything to him. Still, she marches on, taking it day by extremely caffeinated day. But after (1) unknowingly sleeping with the man now leading her banking cohort on one of their biggest deals to date and (2) meeting the #blessed yoga guru who might just be her ticket to the life shes always wanted, it really hits her: her happy-ever-after will be harder to manifest than she thought. Fast-paced, laugh-out-loud funny, and totally irresistible, this is the story of a fearless young woman determined to center herself in the life she truly wants.

I was not expecting to like this so much. I loved Allegra and her co-workers (Tripp was my favorite!).

I especially loved that Allegra kept a positive attitude throughout the book no matter what was being thrown at her.

I recommend this book for someone who is looking for an easy read that is also sprinkled with some wise life lessons.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I liked reading this only because of the investment banking plot and I thought some of the characters were interesting. I didn‘t like the whole yoga and skylar storyline and was bored at some parts of the book.

This was sharp, original and savvy. What Henry accomplishes in her debut is nothing short of amazing. I loved what appears to be the juxtaposition of the ruthless and competitive world of investment banking against the rejuvenating and peaceful realm of yoga when in fact, it turns out to be just as cutthroat. Henry will surprise and delight her readers. This is a smart and cheeky read with complex and interesting characters. A summer must read!
