She was a successful model married to a successful rock star--Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver frontman Scott Weiland--and a world traveler with a home and two beautiful children. But it wasn't until her rampage in a Los Angeles hotel room and the resulting media frenzy that the world got a glimpse into Mary's inner turmoil, self-destructive behavior, bipolar disorder, and drug abuse.</p><p>In <em>Fall to Pieces</em>, she reveals the extreme highs and lows of her life, the volatilty of which long hinted at her bipolar disorder. Weiland tells her story with refreshing candor, unflinching detail, and more than a little humor. Reminiscent of celebrity memoirs from Tatum O'Neill, Brooke Shields and Valerie Bertinelli, Weiland offers a window into the world of modeling and rock'n'roll celebrity while at the same time providing deep insights into a serious and misunderstood mental illness.</p><p>Co-written with veteran journalist Larkin Warren, <em>Fall to Pieces</em> is a blistering, eye-opening memoir of Hollywood meltdown.</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><em>Fall to Pieces</em> is a beautifully written, visceral, roller coaster ride inside bipolar disorder, rock 'n' roll, celebrity culture, and the world of modeling. Mary Forsberg Weiland, ex-wife of the late Scott Weiland, front man for Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver, tells a harrowing true story of depression, drug addiction, and mental illness with candor and, often, humor. Co-written with veteran journalist Larkin Warren, <em>Fall to Pieces</em> is a blistering, eye-opening memoir of Hollywood meltdown in the bestselling vein of Tatum O'Neal's <em>A Paper Life</em> and Valerie Bertinelli's <em>Losing It.</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Weiland's lively, vernacular memoir tells the sadly wasted but ultimately self-directed tale of her meteoric rise as a model from impoverished, half-Mexican roots to a precipitous plunge into drug addiction....Weiland's forthright, resilient can-do spirit injects this sad story with a healthy moral."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em><br><br>"A harrowing story of addiction and mental illness."--<em>People</em><br><br>"A brutally honest and compelling account of Mary Weiland's struggles with addiction and mental illness. Brave, bold and unfiltered, Mary's writing injects humor and levity in a way that is both entertaining and necessary. I have no doubt that this important book will help save many lives."--Dave Navarro<br><br>"A worthy addition to the rock canon."--New York Post<br><br>"For all the death and devastation detailed in its pages, this book is surprisingly funny."--Reuters<br><br>"Mary Weiland describes the depths of madness and addiction with surprising clarity. Fall to Pieces is a wild, gripping story, told with intense emotional honesty."--Terri Cheney, New York Times bestselling author of Manic<br><br>"Mary Weiland's beautifully crafted memoir takes the reader through the journey that is so very common today, the slow drift into addiction and mental illness. Honest, clear, and accurate, Fall to Pieces is perhaps the most vivid rendition of this experience I have ever come across."--Dr. Drew Pinsky, host of Loveline and Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, author of The Mirror Effect and Cracked<br>
