FROM THE New York Times bestselling author comes the relaunch of the wickedly funny, surprisingly touching story of a young Hollywood journalist whose party-girl life implodes and who discovers that getting sober is the most dramatic plot twist of all. For fans of Postcards from the Edge and Rachel's Holiday, Party Girl is a comic novel about addiction and recovery that's been credited with launching the "Quit Lit" genre.

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 job, 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.
