Hardback. Zustand: Good. Decreed by David Letterman (tongue in cheek) on CBS TV's The Late Show to be the pick of Dave's Book Club 2006, Candy Girl is the story of a young writer who dared to bare it all as a stripper. At the age of twenty-four, Diablo Cody decided there had to be more to life than typing copy at an ad agency. She soon managed to find inspiration from a most unlikely source-- amateur night at the seedy Skyway Lounge. While she doesn't take home the prize that night, Diablo discovers to her surprise the act of stripping is an absolute thrill. This is Diablo's captivating fish-out-of-water story of her yearlong walk on the wild side, from quiet gentlemen's clubs to multilevel sex palaces and glassed-in peep shows. In witty prose she gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at this industry through a writer's keen eye, chronicling her descent into the skin trade and the effect it had on her self-image and her relationship with her now husband.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. First edition. First edition, first printing of the author's first book. A fine, fresh copy in equally fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 212 pp. Autobiographical memoir by Diablo Cody, later the screenwriter for the hit movie "Juno", who at age 24, was trapped in a boring job as a copy typist at an ad agency in Minneapolis. On a whim, she signed up ofr an amateur night at a seedy local strip club. She didn't win a prize that night but discovered a rush she'd never felt before and an experience she couldn't forget. Diablo didn't fit the ordinary profile of a stripper---she had a supportive boyfriend, brainpower in addition to her beauty, and came from a good family. But out to do a little soul searching, she soon immersed herself in this enticing life full time. Her memoir of those years is not, however, the story of a girl gone wrong---it's a captivating fish-out-or-water story of a young woman who tried something outrageously new, providing a behind-the-scenes look at a dark world while she keeps her wits (and wit) about her. Cody would go on to direct the films "Paradise", written and produced "Jennifer's Body" with Amanda Seyfried and Megan Fox, "Young Adult", "Ricky and The Flash:, and "Tully". She has also created, written and produced tow streaming service series and won a Tony Award for Best Book of A Musical for "Jagged Little Pill".…
