Party Girl
Party Girl: A Novel | Anna David
2 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
Celebrity journalist Amelia Stone is the quintessential L.A. party girl. She goes to Hollywood's most exclusive, star-studded events, where she rubs shoulders (and occasionally more) with celebrities, stays out until all hours of the night, and indulges in the ultimate sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll existence. In short, she's got everything a party girl needs: the looks, the job, the lifestyle. And oh, yes, the out-of-control coke habit. But it's hard to keep topping your own outrageous exploits, and after losing her job, her friends, and much of her mind (not to mention waking up in the hospital after combining five Ambien, four lines of Special K, and an inestimable amount of cocaine), Amelia makes the drastic decision to end her drug abuse. Sobriety, she finds, has its rewards: she starts seeing the man who could be her Mr. Right and gets hired by a big-name magazine to write a column detailing her wild adventures with the celebrity party crowd. And who could write it better? After all, she has plenty of experience to draw on. There's just one little problem. Overnight, Amelia Stone has become the new face of Hollywood nightlife, and her editorswho don't know she's come cleanwant her to play the part. As her popularity skyrockets and the film and TV agents start calling, the lure of her former fast-and-furious lifestyle begins to pull at her. Faced with the most exciting opportunity of her career, she must now decide to either save herselfor salvage her reputation as the ultimate party girl. Acidly hilarious and achingly honest, Party Girl is a harrowing ride through the world of Hollywood excess with a heroine who's deliciously flawed. Whether snorting coke or crying in rehab, hooking up or breaking down, Amelia Stone makes her way across the treacherous grounds of addiction, self-destruction, and recovery without ever losing her sharp wit, unapologetic candor, or odds-defying optimism.

#Aprella If you‘re looking for a quick read fueled by Red Bull, drugs, sex and Hollywood celebrities this book is your answer. Amelia is the ultimate party girl first to arrive & #lasttoleave but when she finds herself without a job, without friends and without any real direction...drastic changes need to be made. Book felt honest and insightful, although I did read this while on a alcohol enhanced Mexican getaway🍹🍸🍹🍸🍷🍸🍹

Kalalalatja This post reminded me of a saying we have In Denmark, which goes something like: the truth comes from children and drunk people. So I‘m believing you when you say this was insightful and great 😄🥂🍹🍷 6y
