{Dream Cast+Giveaway} Party Girl by Rachel Hollis

Party Girl by Rachel Hollis
Genre: New Adult
Kindle Edition, 360 pages
Publication Date: February 14th 2014 by Chic Publishing

Landon Brinkley is making her dreams come true. After years of poring over glossy photos of celebrity parties in People and US Weekly, she�s landed her Holy Grail: an internship with the fabulous Selah Smith, event planner to the Hollywood elite.
Moving from small town Texas to Los Angeles, Landon finds herself in a world in which spending a million dollars on an event � even for kids� birthdays � is de rigueur. The thrill of working on A-list parties and celeb weddings is enough to get her through the 75-hour workweeks, the nightmare of a multi-day film festival, and abuse at the hands of a mercurial boss. LA is full of opportunity for fame, fortune and even love. But confronted with the seamy realities of the business, she is forced to make a choice: do whatever it takes to get ahead, or stay true to herself.
A roman a clef in the vein of The Devil Wears Prada, PARTY GIRL draws on the author�s real life experience for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the celebrity-obsessed world of event planning. From the party habits of America�s favorite underage singer to the worst Bridezilla of all (the kind that graces the cover of your favorite magazine), PARTY GIRL reveals the ugly side of Hollywood�s prettiest parties.

Dream Cast

Rachel has stopped by to tell us who she pictured for each of her characters. I love dream casts and I think her picks are awesome! Check it out

This is SUCH a tough question for me because some of the characters are
based on celebrities (obviously, easy to cast) and some of them seem like very
real people to me so I have no idea who should play them. For what it�s worth,
here are my best guesses�

Landon Brinkley � I wish I knew! It�s really tough for me
to come up with someone who�s the right age and also,
having the ability to play southern is really, really important
for her. I just saw Anna Sophia Robb in The Way Way
Back and I wondered if she might be a good Landon.








 

Taylor � Half way through writing this book I saw Dave
Franco in Now You See Me and I loved that he was sort of
a punk but totally charming at the same time� that�s
utterly Taylor. From that point on I always saw Dave
Franco when I was writing his character.





 

Max is, for some reason, the toughest for me to come up with. Besides Landon, she�s my favorite character in this book and if I was going to write a sequel it
would be Max�s story. She�s so tough and grouchy but buried under 18 layers of
mean-girl is a really good heart. I�ll leave you to who imagine who might play her
because I have no idea.

As for all the celebrities in the book� those are based on very real celebrity
clients, I�ll leave you to wonder who each one is based on. My lips are sealed. ;)
