By: Beck Dorey-SteinNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • What if you lived out the drama of your twenties on Air Force One?
“[This] breezy page turner is essentially Bridget Jones goes to the White House.”—The New York Times
RECOMMENDED READING theSkimm • Today • Entertainment Weekly • Refinery29 • Bustle • PopSugar • Vanity Fair • The New York Times Editors’ Choice • Paste
In 2012, Beck Dorey-Stein is working five part-time jobs and just scraping by when a posting on Craigslist lands her, improbably, in the Oval Office as one of Barack Obama’s stenographers. The ultimate D.C. outsider, she joins the elite team who accompany the president wherever he goes, recorder and mic in hand. On whirlwind trips across time zones, Beck forges friendships with a dynamic group of fellow travelers—young men and women who, like her, leave their real lives behind to hop aboard Air Force One in service of the president.
As she learns to navigate White House protocols and more than once runs afoul of the hierarchy, Beck becomes romantically entangled with a consummate D.C. insider, and suddenly the political becomes all too personal.
Against a backdrop of glamour, drama, and intrigue, this is the story of a young woman learning what truly matters, and, in the process, discovering her voice.
Praise for From the Corner of the Oval
“Who knew the West Wing could be so sexy? Beck Dorey-Stein’s unparalleled access is obvious on every page, along with her knife-sharp humor. I tore through the entire book on a four-hour flight and loved reading all about the brilliant yet hard-partying people who once surrounded the leader of the free world. Lots of books claim to give real insider glimpses, but this one actually delivers.”—Lauren Weisberger, author of The Devil Wears Prada
“Dorey-Stein . . . writes with wit and self-deprecating humor.”—The Wall Street Journal
“Addictively readable . . . Dorey-Stein’s spunk and her sparkling, crackling prose had me cheering for her through each adventure. . . . She never loses her starry-eyed optimism, her pinch-me wonderment, her Working Girl pluck.”—Paul Begala, The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice)

Comfortable and Durable No-Show Socks
Color: Illusion Green Assorted, Size: Medium
The Under Armour Essential 2.0 No Show Socks are fantastic! This 6-pair pack is perfect for everyday wear, and the socks fit snugly without slipping off the heel. They are lightweight, breathable, and keep my feet comfortable all day, whether I’m working out or running errands.
The material feels durable and high-quality, holding up well after multiple washes without losing shape or elasticity. I also appreciate the moisture-wicking feature, which keeps my feet dry during exercise. Overall, these are reliable, comfortable, and well-made socks that are worth every penny.

Will last a good while despite not being overly thick.
Color: Black/Assorted, Size: 6-10
I purchased these socks about 14 months ago and I use them regularly with maybe five other pairs of socks made by a different brand. No holes so far. I used to buy Hanes and they barely lasted a week before I had to throw a pair of them out. I still use all six of these socks (assuming I can find them!) I often walk outside on my cement patio or tiptoe through the grass in socks so I am a little tough on them I guess you could say. I'm also very active. I don't exercise at a gym and thus don't use them in tennis shoes but walk most of the day when at home. I run around in my yard doing yard work and gardening. I also have worn them regularly at work while walking around in my steel toed shoes (which rub) and they somehow lived through that. They still look fine: no discoloration or weak spots in the heel which is usually the first sign of wear for me.
They are comfortable too. I don't feel any line at the toes and they don't rub or fit too tight in any way. I love the height of these, they are so short that they slip down in your shoe but not overly tall (I don't like the look and feel of tall socks). They are also lightweight and very breathable.
So great quality for the price. I'd recommend and I will likely buy the same brand in the future.

Excellent, sturdy socks
Color: White/Assorted, Size: 6-10
These socks are a little pricey, but they're thick and well-made. I also love the little pops of color on top. I got a set at a local sports store and was so impressed that I immediately got another off Amazon. Two years later, I still have all twelve pairs, and they're as comfy and good-looking as they were on day one. The cheaper socks I bought previously have become thin, cold, and holey.

Pretty good
Color: Rebel Pink Assorted Locked-in Fit, Size: Medium
Quality seems good, but different colors seem to be different sizes. The whitish ones fit fine, but the colored ones seem a tad shorter.
