<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Brooke loved reading the dishy celebrity gossip rag, "Last Night"--until her marriage became a weekly headline. When rumors about Brooke and her newly minted rock-star husband swirl in the tabloids, she must question the truth of her marriage.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>The Devil Wears Prada</i>, a compulsively readable novel about a woman whose struggling singer-songwriter husband is catapulted to fame, dragging them both onto the pages of celebrity gossip magazines--and changing their marriage forever.</b> <p/>Brooke loved reading the dishy celebrity gossip rag <i>Last Night</i>. That is, until her marriage became a weekly headline... <p/>For five years, she's worked two jobs to support her husband's dream of making it in the music world. Finally, after countless gigs at Manhattan dive bars and toiling as an A&R intern, the soulful, enigmatic Julian Alter gets signed by Sony, where he logs long hours in the recording studio with no promise of success. But when he is invited to perform on a national late-night talk show, he is catapulted to stardom--literally overnight. <p/>At first the newfound fame is fun--who wouldn't want to stay at the Chateau Marmont or love being treated like rock royalty? But as Brooke's sweet husband becomes increasingly absent and tabloid rumors swirl, Brooke begins to question the truth about their marriage and is forced to finally come to terms with what she thinks she wants--and what she actually needs.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A good antidote to summer TV -- it's a haunting look at what might happen if your life became a reality show but you never signed off on the cameras" --"Entertainment Weekly"<br><br>"Her fourth novel provides the same kind of authentic peek into a rarified sub-culture that "Prada" did...as fervently flippable as a gossip magazine" "--USA Today"<br><br>"If you like reading tabloid magazines, tracking the latest celebrity hookups, or are a fan of Weisberger's books, then "Last Night at Chateau Marmont" is the book for you." --"Associated Press"<br><br>"Incisive...an absorbing, thoroughly entertaining read" --"Booklist"<br><br>"Learn about the dark side of the limelight in this latest novel from "The Devil Wears Prada" chick-lit maestro Lauren Weisberger" --"Star"<P><br><br>"The perfect end-of-summer romp" --"BookPage"<br><br>"Weisberger gets the star-making machine right, and the little details that make up the essence of the couple's relationship feel poignant and true" --"People"<br><br>"Weisberger has insightful takes about the price of success in our celebrity-obsessed culture" --"Publishers Weekly"<br><br>“Her fourth novel provides the same kind of authentic peek into a rarified sub-culture that "Prada" did...as fervently flippable as a gossip magazine” "—USA Today"<br><br>“If you like reading tabloid magazines, tracking the latest celebrity hookups, or are a fan of Weisberger's books, then "Last Night at Chateau Marmont" is the book for you.” —"Associated Press"<br><br>“Weisberger gets the star-making machine right, and the little details that make up the essence of the couple’s relationship feel poignant and true” —"People"<br><br>"A good antidote to summer TV — it's a haunting look at what might happen if your life became a reality show but you never signed off on the cameras" —"Entertainment Weekly"<br><br>"The perfect end-of-summer romp" —"BookPage"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lauren Weisberger is the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Devil Wears Prada</i>, which was published in forty languages and made into a major motion picture starring Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.
