FROM THE New York Times bestselling author comes the relaunch of the book that started the "Quit Lit" movement. With over 180 positive reviews and coverage on Today and CNN's Showbiz Tonight and in the pages of The New York Post, Cosmo, Redbook and more, the book that started it all is now in the development as a feature film. It's also back to entertain audiences with a story that shows the surprising hilarity of a sober life.

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.

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.

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.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"With Party Girl, Anna David may have invented a new sub-genre: chick lit with a message." - The New York Post

"Anna David deftly injects humor into a serious subject." - Library Journal

"In a world where the red carpet often leads to rehab, this tale of self-destruction and reinvention is perfect for gossip-hungry readers." - Cosmo magazine

"A mouthwatering read, especially for those out there who salivate over Page Six blind items. Studios sniffed around even before the book hit the shelves." - Los Angeles Confidential magazine

"Funny, touching, and compulsively readable, Anna David's Party Girl skewers the myth of the sexy free spirit whose capers win over cocktail hours even as they chip away at her soul. Amelia's story may be sensational, but her predicament is common: The world doesn't always like it when women sober up, and there are many rewards to keep playing a role. But the real prize is winning yourself back." - Sarah Hepola, New York Times bestselling author of Blackout: Remembering the Things I Drank to Forget

"Party Girl has it all—action, heartbreak, redemption, humor and inspiration. If you have ever been a party girl, this book will hit home. This story showcases recovery and addiction in all its truth but with a side of humor; you will laugh out loud and want more! A must read!" - Erica Spiegelman, bestselling author of Rewired: A Bold New Approach to Recovery

"Party Girl is a must-read, wild ride through the glittering world of Hollywood and its excesses. Gripping from start, it is both laugh out loud funny and achingly honest. With its irresistible heroine, Party Girl sets the standard for stories of addiction and recovery." - Lisa Smith, award-winning author of Girl Walks Out of a Bar

"Party Girl is like Bret Easton Ellis in Technicolor; just as dark and real, but so much more fun to read. Anna David created a masterpiece; she authentically captures the false glow of celebrity and addiction in a way that no one has ever done before." - Dr. Josh Lichtman, psychiatrist and addiction medicine specialist

From the Author

Over 20 years ago, I showed up in rehab completely broken.

Once the cobwebs cleared, I realized that getting clean wasn't the end of my life, as I'd thought for so many years it would be, but the beginning.

And I thought: my God, how many people are out there, struggling with addiction the way I was, and thinking sobriety is the end? What if there's one person out there who could hear my story and not have to go as low as I did? What if there's a way for me to write out my story in a way that shows the FULL experience—how ridiculous my thinking used to be and how hilarious recovery can be?I sat down to write about it. That became my first book, Party Girl.

Nearly 15 years after HarperCollins released it, I have gotten the rights back and am rebelliously re-releasing it myself. Typical "party girl" behavior, no?

From the Inside Flap

CHAPTER 2 EXCERPT:

Back in LA, Stephanie asks me about the wedding and I regale her with my exploits. She laughs hysterically, the same way I did when she told me about twisting her ankle while dancing at the wedding she went to back East; at least she thinks she was dancing, as she was actually in a blackout and didn't want anyone around to know so she never was able to determine how it happened. "They should keep us away from weddings—the way we behave is completely foul," she says.

I work at Absolutely Fabulous, a celebrity weekly magazine that's basically a glorified tabloid, and Stephanie works one level down, at American Style, a weekly magazine that devotes itself to dissecting the outfits and homes of celebrities in minute detail. And thank God for Stephanie. Most of my Absolutely Fabulous coworkers are about as cool as Sunday school teachers.

Because of its high circulation rate (five million and rising all the time), those who work at Absolutely Fabulous speak of it in the revered tone most might use to describe The New Yorker. "We, quite simply, have the best writing and reporting of any magazine out there," our bureau chief Robert likes to say, and we all drink the Kool-Aid. Glimmers of reality peak into that otherwise glorious way of thinking—like the fact that I'm sometimes embarrassed to tell people I work here, that the constant note I'm always given about my articles is that I need to "make my sentences shorter" and that the big joke about the publication is that everyone reads it on the toilet, but it's amazing how convincing a staff of roughly 30 people can be. People seem to stretch reality just enough to motivate them—but it's a little weird, you know? Can't they just say, "When I was little, I didn't imagine that figuring out what Madonna eats would be my living, but hey, this is a successful magazine and someday I may work somewhere else"? I know that it takes a bit of denial for all of us to get out of bed in the morning, but sometimes the people at Absolutely Fabulous seem to be swimming in a whole river of it.

Stephanie absolutely hates her job—only works there for the party invites and free clothes, and willingly announces as much to anyone who will listen. Which makes it all the more difficult for me when she keeps rising on their masthead while I stay stuck as a low-level writer at Absolutely Fabulous. It's not that I want Stephanie to fail—it's just that sometimes I wouldn't mind if my number one partner in crime were sort of in the same place as I am.

Unfortunately, I seem to inspire a sort of figurative foaming at the mouth from my boss Robert. This could have to do with the fact that I was hired by his second-in-command, Brian, when Robert was on leave, or maybe I just remind him of someone he absolutely hates. I try most everything to turn him around, but when people make up their mind about you, you could save their mother's life and they'd still think you were an asshole. Case in point: Brad McCormick, my high school boyfriend, who hovered somewhere around the 5'4 mark during our adolescent relationship. Though he's now about six feet tall—a late growth spurt and, unfortunately, not one I was able to benefit from—to me, he'll always be "little Brad McCormick."

***

"You ready?" Stephanie asks me on a Thursday at about six. She's standing at my cubicle, workbag slung over her shoulder, flashing the flask that I gave her for her birthday from under her coat.

I used to get really excited before going to premieres. I think I imagined that someone would see me there and discover me for God knows what—I'm not an actress, or I should say I only am in my personal life—but I guess I thought getting discovered for being so utterly fabulous that I would need to be immediately removed from my day- to-day life and deposited into an existence that revolved around being fabulous full time. I think I thought that rubbing up against movie stars would make me happy. But it occurred to me this one night that I found myself in a cigarette-fueled drunken discussion with Jeremy Piven at a premiere. Jeremy Piven didn't seem too happy, so why should I be happy for having had the experience of talking to him all night?

We stop for drinks at some Westwood college bar beforehand. Or, if I'm going to have to be perfectly honest and specific about everything, I should say that Stephanie stops for drinks and I stop for drinks and a few lines.

When I first started doing coke, at parties, it was usually easy enough to count on being in the right place at the right time for a steady supply. But more than a few experiences chatting up thoroughly disgusting men only to learn that they were simply fellow coke-seekers themselves had brought me to a point a few months ago where I finally understood the necessity of having my own dealer. And the sheer joy I've felt over the fact that I can do coke whenever I want because I'm not relying on someone else to get it has made the additional expense seem almost irrelevant.

I wander into the bathroom after a woman with gray hair in a bun leaves, and shut myself in the stall farthest away from the door. Pulling a vial from my purse, I shake some coke onto the window ledge and chop it with a credit card, then take a rolled-up bill from my wallet and snort it up. I hear someone come in and hold my breath while she washes her hands and thankfully leaves, then pour some more coke on the ledge and snort it.

"I still have plenty left," I tell Stephanie as I return from the bathroom and sit down in my swivel chair. The metal taste of cocaine drips down the back of my throat deliciously. Some people say they hate the drip but I love it—that practical evidence that the drug is working its way through my body.

"Nothing could sound more foul," she answers, as she tries to pour some of her vodka tonic into a flask. Stephanie doesn't do coke—she used to have panic attacks and is convinced, probably correctly, that a few lines of cocaine would send her right back there—so I ask her more as a course of habit than as some sick kind of peer pressure.

"Ready?" she asks. I smile, nod and sniffle so I can swallow and taste more cocaine again.

From the Back Cover

FROM PAGE SIX/THE NEW YORK POST:

"Party Girl" — the cult 2007 novel by Anna David — is getting a second wind.

The author has gotten back the book's rights, and is republishing an updated version of the tome through her own boutique book imprint.

She's also penned a screenplay with "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Jeff Garlin to bring the book to the big screen for an Oscar-winning producer, she told us.

"The latest thing I did was get the rights back from HarperCollins," David said in an interview. "Now I have a publishing company, and I did a little updating."

The original book centered on a party reporter who spent her nights drugging, boozing and cavorting with the stars she covered. After going to rehab, the writer winds up being hired to pen a nightlife column called "Party Girl" — but also has to hide that she's actually sober. The Post called the book, "a juicy beach read that happens to have a moral center," when it came out.

David was formerly a sex and dating columnist for outlets including Details, Cosmo, Playboy, The Post, and more. She has now been sober for 21 years, and tells us that she's putting out the updated book on Sept. 15 for National Recovery Month.

The original book centered on a party reporter who spent her nights drugging, boozing and cavorting with the stars she covered.

Since it was originally published, David's book was optioned for the screen five times, she recalls — but never made it to the big screen. One unproduced screenplay was written by "Reality Bites" creator Helen Childress — David's dream writer at the time, she told us — but David was then oddly never shown the script by the producers. Years later, Childress apparently showed it to her herself.

At another point, David met with Melanie Griffith at the "Working Girl" star's home with Antonio Banderas about a film version. Griffith — who took a call from Jeffrey Katzenberg during the meeting and told the mogul about the project — urged David to pen the script herself.

But it wasn't until years later during the coronavirus pandemic that David wrote the script, updating the lead character from a columnist to a podcast host.

She also revealed to Page Six that some characters in the book were based on interactions with real stars, including Matthew Perry (who she says chatted her up once at old Hollywood hot spot, Les Deux), and Seal, (with whom she says she had a particularly poor interview experience while writing for People).

But David is not planning on writing more screenplays. "I don't think I could, I really don't want to," she told us. "['Party Girl'] is one story I know how to tell."

Since she penned the book — to great fanfare in the publishing world, but to less-than-expected sales at the time — David has published eight books and created her successful imprint, Launch Pad.

I recognized the name Anna David from Attach of the Show back on G4 TV. The first two pages my jaw dropped and two hours later my jaw was still hanging open. You can't tell from the title but this book is only a little about partying. It is a lesson in survival. If you know someone that needs to change their life and they are scared, give them this book. If you know someone in recovery that is having a hard time, give them this book. I know people that need this book. Besides a good story, Ms. David shares her pain, her trepidation of losing herself, then how she found herself. If there is any fear of change in your life, this book will help you face it and come out the other end whole. This is the next step after the Big Book. It's an easy read too. Not preachy at all. She just shares her fear then lives her life. My jaw dropped but I was happy at the end and not just for the heroine. I felt proud of her and saw the hope that is there in the world waiting for us to try it. I wish this ending for everyone!

GREAT book by an even more amazing author!!!

Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2020

Verified Purchase

Recently re-read this novel and I swear it was even better the second time! Anna David takes her readers on an emotional relatable journey of self-discovery through the lens of Amelia Stone, a young woman who finds herself in a rather amusing downward spiral until she hits rock bottom, only then having to put her life back together in what seems like the perfect Hollywood success story. Whether you've struggled with addiction or not, Party Girl has a little something for everyone!

I first became intrigued by Anna David's book Party Girl after becoming obsessed with her podcast - formerly Launch Pad, now called Build Your Brand with a Book. Anna is actually such an amazing person and I feel like I already have such a long history with her just from meeting her via Zoom barely over a month ago!! Party Girl is riveting and gives you that glamorous Hollywood tale you expect and want while also throwing in a major twist and giving us lessons we actually NEED too. Bravo, Anna!!! Excited to get to her next couple books that I've already purchased, Make Your Mess Your Memoir and Falling for Me.

For those who don't know Anna, she actually is a best-selling author of something like 8 books?? She has a podcast as mentioned above, and runs a publishing company called Launch Pad Publishing where she helps entrepreneurs and businesspeople write and publish a book to build their brand and credibility. While I'm not yet an entrepreneur, I am a new fiction author myself and found her podcast to be SO incredibly helpful and inspiring for those publishing and launching books, which ultimately convinced me that I NEEDED to reach out to this woman and pick her brain. Anna was so lovely and actually responded back to me after I reached out via her publishing company's website! I was able to meet her on Zoom and speak to her about my own story and book journey.

Seriously, what a gem. I am diehard believer that any serious writer who wants to get their work out there needs to check out everything Anna David has to offer, including and especially her books!!!

The Unmanageability of Addiction

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2021

Verified Purchase

Party girl gives a deep look into the unmanageability of addiction. Not only does the author show how long it took for the main character to hit rock bottom, she also shows the denial and helplessness that the character goes through as her addiction worsens. The story further shows the resistance an addict struggles with getting help, attending 12 step groups, and the hard work it takes to remain sober.

Addiction is cunning and baffling. Party Girl takes the reader on an adventure of battling and winning over those crazy thoughts in our minds. A recommended read for anyone who is an addict, just starting out on the road to recovery, or for those who are trying to understand what a friend or loved one is struggling with.

The holy grail novel for nuanced, smart party girls ready to turn the glitter into glow

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2022

Verified Purchase

Party Girl by Anna David is a one of kind, honest, gut-wrenching, raw yet HILARIOUS, irreverent, and self-aware look into the plight of the Party Girl. Party Girl has all the ingredients for a fabulous, timeless book: Hollywood glam, celebrity sleaze, the (real) darkness of drugs, the strange/surreal life of a media girl, literary prowess, wit and wisdom, downfalls, and upswings. Never predictable, never cheesy, but endlessly amusing — Anna David manages to make even the darkest moments glimmer. I could not recommend more. Also, when is this turning into a TV series?

The media could not be loaded.

Being a woman in recovery from addiction myself, I knew I would LOVE this book. Not only could I relate to it, but it was also super funny. I read it in a few days because it was such an easy read. I love books that aren't complicated and have a great story. The realness of "Party Girl" is epic and I felt like I was in the story. BUY THIS BOOK, you won't be disappointed.

I met Anna David virtually last year and she inspired me to finally start writing my own book. I have been following her podcast as well as following her on social media to get any tips I can. Happy to say my book is almost finished and a big thanks to Anna for leading the way for women in recovery to follow their dreams!

This book was okay. It didn’t reel me in and hook me but it wasn’t a bad story. The main character I found to be very unlikeable and maybe that’s why I had a hard time getting invested in this story.

I absolutely LOVED this book!!! Every single page was entertaining! In recovery now for over 11 years, I could totally relate to being the ultimate "Party Girl." I got swept away into the glitz and glam of Hollywood and celebrity, everything I was seeking in my addiction as well. The pages were filled with zany and astounding stories which made the book fun and I was laughing like crazy! Yet, at the same time, it was brutally honest and raw. After coming through the despair and hopelessness of her addiction and now living on the bright side of the rainbow, Anna was able to shine HOPE for all of those who are still suffering. What a light and beautiful way to lead people across that rainbow!!!

Wow! Loved this incredible, real story of the road to recovery by Anna David!
At first I thought this book wasn't for me, but the more I read, the more I related to the humor, struggle, real work and triumph through such incredible adversity. While I have never struggled with addiction, I have struggled with some other serious and destructive challenges in my life's journey and the hard work to come out the other side of it.
The insightfulness and brutal honesty in this transcends all forms of needing help and the road to self awareness in creating your best life and coming back from the abyss.
The most real, exposed and brave book I have ever read! What an inspiring work of love & a must read!! Highly recommend!! ~ Siobhan Kelley

And I thought I was the ultimate party gal! Anna David absolutely blows this title out of the window with her book Party Girl. I loved this whole story, it is entertaining and heartfelt from start to finish. (And I could relate to so much!) You can see this being an awesome movie that'd be putting Recovery on the map, as well as illustrating how telling our (crazy) stories saves us. Embracing our dark to reveal our light! Highly recommend reading this book and following Anna on instagram and her mailing list if you are newly sober and wondering how you may ever be fun again. She is living proof and a huge inspiration!

So I actually own two copies of this book from years past.

I remember Anna David from her days on G4tv which was a channel dedicated to video games. And that’s partially what made me want to buy it.

Anyways, this book is good for those adults between 18-35 and are either trying to live a fascinating Californian lifestyle or those that can understand what it’s like to go through rehab and addictions.

What gets me most is just the first page or two, it’s so good it gets you hooked and want to find out more. Highly recommended!
