we love passive aggressive email chains as a book

If the combination of wedding-related brouhaha + female codespeak + passive aggressive emails gets you going this time of year, you’ll be as excited as we are to finally pick up a copy of Hey Ladies, published last month by Michelle Markowitz and Caroline Moss.

You know us to be eternal suckers for the use of email in interesting ways, which is why the book’s format — i.e., one long wedding planning email chain — stands out and, imho, captures the exact cultural zeitgeist of being aggressive young professional women tryna have it all while maintaining a polite email tone.

Plus, you can sample a bit of the vibe via Moss and Markowitz’s old “Hey Ladies” column from the (now-defunct) The Toast here.
