A stunning novel from the Number One Sunday Times bestselling author of HOW TO BUILD A GIRL
Life is always better backstage, isn´t it?
´Who better than Caitlin Moran to bring fame down to earth with a bump´ - Helen Fielding, bestselling author of Bridget Jones´s Diary

A funny, riotous novel about a young women making it in a world where men hold all the power from the Sunday Times bestselling author of HOW TO BUILD A GIRL

----------------------------------------------------

I´m Johanna Morrigan, and I live in London in 1995, at the epicentre of Britpop. I might only be nineteen, but I´m wise enough to know that everyone around me is handling fame very, very badly.

My unrequited love, John Kite, has scored an unexpected Number One album, then exploded into a Booze And Drugs HellTM - as rockstars do. And my new best friend - the maverick feminist Suzanne Banks, of The Branks - has amazing hair, but writer´s block and a rampant pill problem. So I´ve decided I should become a Fame Doctor. I´m going to use my new monthly column for The Face to write about every ridiculous, surreal, amazing aspect of a million people knowing your name.

But when my two-night-stand with edgy comedian Jerry Sharp goes wrong, people start to know my name for all the wrong reasons. ´He´s a vampire. He destroys bright young girls. Also, he´s a total dick´ Suzanne warned me. But by that point, I´d already had sex with him. Bad sex.
Now I´m one of the girls he´s trying to destroy.
He needs to be stopped. But how can one woman stop a bad, famous, powerful man?
