Anyway, this week I'm waiting on Lauren Weisberger's next book and I've been waiting to post about it ever since I first heard about it ages ago, but I was just waiting for the cover to be released, which it was a few days ago. I don't find the cover particularly mindblowing (I mean, it's alright), but I looove the sound of the book and cannot wait to read it - it's out in paperback (yay!) in May in the US and in June in the UK!
LAST NIGHT AT CHATEAU MARMONT
by Lauren Weisberger
by Lauren Weisberger
Two college sweethearts are living a happy, rather ordinary life in New York but there's a slight twist – she's the breadwinner, supporting her musician boyfriend. Until the tables are turned when he's discovered by a Sony exec and their worlds are turned upside down.
Soon they are holidaying in the Hamptons, adorning the cover of Vanity Fair and attending every glitzy party in town – all the while his career is reaching new, dizzying heights. But the trappings of this elite lifestyle mean our heroine must face the wrath of the US press. Scorned for having a less-than-perfectly-honed LA body and brutalised for being 'ordinary' things couldn't get any worse…
Then news erupts that her best friend, who's been her confidante through these months of misery, has sold her innermost secrets to the press and her life spirals out of control.
She finds solace in a secret support group: The Civilian Ex-Wives and Girlfriends of Celebrities Group – a place to gossip, lubricated with lashings of shared experiences and strong cocktails. As this sassy group right the wrongs of their past relationships, our heroine must decide if she's going to sink or swim.
ps: This is your last chance to win one out of five copies of DAUGHTERS OF FORTUNE by Tara Hyland - the giveaway ends April 1st! !

hehe! I saw the cover of this last night and added it on librarything. I'm saving it for a future WoW. Should be a fun summer read! The cover is pretty tacky, though.
Cool pick :D
I love her covers, they're so cute. This book sounds like a lot of fun. I really enjoyed The Devil Wears Prada. I should try more of her stuff.
I can't wait for this book! I've had a hold placed on it at the library for a month now (I think I was the first person!)
I have never read any of her books, but I LOVE the covers of all of them! They're precious!
Love the cover!!!
Wow, what a cover! Thanks for this. :)
I've been waiting for this book to be released! I love the cover!
Cute pick! I haven't read The Devil Wears Prada, but I've seen the movie of course. I hope this book is good!

I really liked The Devil Wears Prada and I was so excited to hear it was going to be a movie. This looks really good!!
Haha, I was waiting for the cover to post this one too!! The cover is almost exactly like her last book... though I like this one better. This one does sound good!
I'm soooo looking forward to this one!! Was going to do a WoW when the cover came out too haha
I have just put down the book 'Everyone Worth Knowning' and is now starting 'Chasing Harry Winston'. Cant wait for the new edition, the covers are all fab
Spoilers...
Just a couple of points of accuracy - the couple are not college sweethearts, they met in a pub at one of Julian's gigs. Also, it's not her best friend who sold her out. And she only goes to one meeting of the 'exs' group, and walks out halfway through.
