A freelance journalist recounts her decision to work as a stripper in spite of her less-typical profile as an intelligent woman with a supportive boyfriend and positive family life, in a personal account that describes her adventures and the lessons she learned in gentlemen's clubs and sex palaces. 30,000 first printing.

"Diablo Cody is to stripping what Chuck Klosterman is to pop culture and Sarah Vowell is to American History--an off-kilter visionary cynical enough to trust and talented enough to blister all that her mighty pen touches. Candy Girl is fiendishly funny, muscle car fast, and frighteningly--and I do mean frighteningly--accurate. Lock up your daughters and get your lighters in the air, for Candy Girl proves Ms. Diablo to be a writer of rock star calibre."
--Lily Burana, author, "STRIP CITY: A Stripper's Farewell Journey Across America"
Diablo Cody is a freelance journalist and is currently the associate arts editor for City Pages, Minneapolis’ alternative weekly. Her now defunct website, “The Pussy Ranch,” scored over one million page views in its seventeen-month run, garnering acclaim from The Village Voice, among others. Her first screenplay, "Juno," is being produced by Mandate Pictures, and she has two other screenplays in development with Warner Brothers.
