Reviews
"This third effort from McLaughlin and Kraus is spot on...a moving story. A bittersweet coming-of-age tale with flashes of wit and an especially sympathetic heroine." -- "Kirkus", "McLaughlin and Kraus...[have a] carefully calibrated sense of compassion and delicious sense of the absurd." -- "Entertainment Weekly", "McLaughlin and Kraus have created an amazingly distinct voice...cynical and wry, but also compassionate." -- "Newsday", "This third effort from McLaughlin and Kraus is spot on...a moving story. A bittersweet coming-of-age tale with flashes of wit and an especially sympathetic heroine." --Kirkus, "McLaughlin and Kraus deftly satirize post-feminist, postmodern, twenty-first-century America." -- "Booklist", "McLaughlin and Kraus deftly satirize post-feminist, postmodern, twenty-first-century America."--Booklist

Synopsis
From the runaway bestselling authors of The Nanny Diaries and Citizen Girl comes the story of Kate Hollis, a woman who finds herself at the threshold of full adulthood, only to discover that the only way to 30 is through 17., From the runaway bestselling authors of "The Nanny Diaries" and "Citizen Girl" comes the story of Kate Hollis, a woman who finds herself at the threshold of full adulthood, only to discover that the only way to 30 is through 17., What if your ex was famous and adored by millions? What would you do if you had one chance to make him regret his entire existence? How much would you risk? Kate Hollis's ex-boyfriend's face plasters newsstands and TV, the Internet, and the multiplex. Jake Sharpe is one of the biggest recording stars on the planet, and every song he's famous for is about Kate. For over a decade his soundtrack has chased her -- from the gym to the supermarket, from the dentist's office to the bars. Now thirty-year-old Kate gets the call that Jake has finally landed back in their Vermont hometown for an MTV special. The moment she has been waiting for has arrived. On the eve of their prom, Jake Sharpe vanished, resurfacing when his song "Losing" -- about his and Kate's first sexual experience -- shot to the top of the Billboard charts. And the hits kept coming, each more personal than the one before. Now Kate gets her chance to confront Jake and reclaim her past. But after eleven years of enduring protracted and far-from-private heartbreak, everyone in Kate's life has a stake in how this plays out. Kate must risk betraying the friends Jake abandoned, the bandmates whose songs he plundered, and her own parents, who fear this will dredge up a shared past more painful than any of them want to acknowledge. But after getting the call in the dead of night and jumping on a plane, can she turn back now? "Newsweek" dubbed "The Nanny Diaries" "a national phenomenon" and the "New Republic" proclaimed, "Thank God for "Citizen Girl"." Now McLaughlin and Kraushave written a poignant, humorous tale about modern celebrity obsession and coming of age during the divorce boom. With flawless depictions of the 1980s, a charismatic heroine, and their signature biting wit, the authors offer up another lively and hilarious tale of a smart young woman looking for satisfaction in the chaos of contemporary culture., What if your ex was famous and adored by millions?
