Hollywood Nobody

August 2007
Fifteen-year-old Scotty Dawn has spent most of her life traveling from movie set to movie set with her food stylist mother, Charley. Growing up independently has made Scotty a resourceful, inquisitive and introspective young woman. She even documents her life on her blog, "Hollywood Nobody." Scotty is determined to find her place in the world - even if it means uncovering long buried secrets. But finding her way in the world isn't easy with a mother who seems to be keeping secrets and friendships that last only as long as the latest filming schedule.
HOLLYWOOD NOBODY is the first in a series about life on the road, finding yourself, and discovering the flaws that make up everyone. I love, love, loved this book! Its intended audience is teens, which I haven't been for {really} long time, but I can't wait to read the rest of the series. It's written as a diary with Scotty's blog posts thrown in. I love Scotty's quirky style and her realistic view of Hollywood ups and downs. Her blog is a fun but in no way snarky look at Hollywood stars, both real and fictionalized stars. Highly recommend!
