<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Based on the authors experiences covering todays hottest stars, this explosive novel follows a hard-partying celebrity journalist who leads a double life--with hilarious and nearly disastrous results.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>When <em>Party Girl</em> was released by HarperCollins in 2007, it was hailed as the book that launched the "Quit Lit" movement. With a movie deal in the works, the book that started it all is now back to entertain audiences yet again with a story that shows the surprising hilarity of a sober life.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Celebrity journalist Amelia Stone is the quintessential Hollywood party girl: she stays out late, rubs shoulders (and occasionally more) with celebrities and ingests copious amounts of cocaine.</p><p><br></p><p>But after losing her job, her friends and much of her mind, Amelia makes the drastic decision to end her drug abuse. Once sober, she's hired by a big-name magazine to write a column detailing her wild adventures and she starts seeing the man who could be her Mr. Right.</p><p><br></p><p>There's just one problem. Overnight, Amelia has become the new face of Hollywood nightlife, and her editors-who don't know she's come clean-want her to play the part. As the lure of her former fast-and-furious lifestyle begins to pull at her, she must decide whether to save herself or salvage her reputation as the ultimate party girl.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A hilarious tale of a madcap screwball heroine--Irene Dunn with a Sidekick and a Prada bag full of cocaine."--Richard Rushfield, author of On Spec: A Novel of Young Hollywood<br><br>"A rollercoaster read...The most accurate portrayal of addiction and the nuances of recovery that I have come across."--Dr. Drew Pinsky, addiction expert and host of Loveline<br><br>"A smart, hilarious, and poignant page-turner that takes you past the velvet ropes and into the Hollywood party scene."--Cindy Chupack, a writer/executive producer of Sex and the City and author of The Between Boyfriends Book<br><br>"Amelia Stone's struggle to transcend the booze and booty-calls makes Sex and the City look like Disneyland."--Ian Kerner, New York Times bestselling author of She Comes First and Be Honest--You're Not That Into Him, Either<br><br>"An inspirational story--a triumph over the red carpet, instant intimacy with celebs, and an open bar."--Liz Smith, The New York Post<br><br>"Anna David's Party Girl is acidly hilarious and thoroughly entertaining.
