A hilarious spin on life in the celebrity fast lane from "Florida's most entertainingly indignant social critic" (New York Times Book Review) and the bestselling author of Squeeze Me. Meet twenty-two-year-old Cherry Pye (n嶪 Cheryl Bunterman), a pop star since she was fourteen--and about to attempt a comeback from her latest drug-and-alcohol disaster.
