Party Girl

Description

SECOND EDITION/THE PG VERSION

From the New York Times bestselling author comes the updated second edition of the novel that helped spark the Quit Lit movement.

This PG-rated version delivers a slightly tamer take on addiction and recovery while still showing how unexpectedly hilarious a sober life can be.

Celebrity journalist Amelia Stone is the quintessential Hollywood party girl. Her nights are long, her social circle fabulous and her self-destructive habits legendary. Cocaine, cocktails and chaos are simply part of the job.

Until they aren’t.

After losing her career, her friends and much of her grip on reality, Amelia makes the radical decision to get sober. What follows is a recovery journey she never saw coming. Newly sober and back on her feet, Amelia lands a job at a major magazine writing about Hollywood nightlife and begins dating the man who could finally be her Mr. Right.

There’s just one catch. Her editors have no idea she’s sober and need her to continue living the fast, reckless life that attracted them to her in the first place. As temptation creeps back in and the pressure mounts, Amelia must choose between protecting her sobriety or preserving her image as Hollywood’s ultimate party girl.

A sharp, darkly funny novel about addiction, recovery and reinvention, Party Girl offers a fresh, female-driven look at sobriety, identity and the surprising freedom of a life rebuilt.
