Candy Girl

Wow, I got through Candy Girl in 2 days. It was such a fun and enticing read! I didn't even get squeamish until the last 30 pages... It was definitely fun to read about places I've seen downtown, and to learn about the inner workings of the doll houses. I recommend reading this! A nice break from the Time list.

Two funny stories related to Candy Girl - a friend from Junior League read this in her book club and they went to The Seville for their meeting to discuss the book. Apparently they got a tour and solicited to join the club if they were interested! Then they went to a Juno movie premier at the Walker. The author of Candy Girl, Diablo Cody, also wrote Juno. They got a chance to chat with her all about stripping!

The second story is that the owner of my hair salon was apparently married to a guy who left her to marry Cody. I keep wondering if Jonny in the book is the salon owner's ex!

Ready to get back to the list!
Happy reading!
Mary
