Product Description
Not for the faint of heart, Cherry Bomb is an A-to-Z reference for everything awesome a girl needs to know, including the obvious (style, beauty, dating, and sex tips) and the not-so-obvious (instructions for preparing absinthe, how to hit on a celebrity). It's a girl's guide with a difference: one that shows readers how to identify, go after, and get whatever they want in life -- be it a hot guy, a great job, a mind-blowing orgasm, or a sexy new look -- all while marching to her own (rock) beat.Bona fide rock chick Carrie Borzillo-Vrenna's tips are smart, funny, edgy, and will empower women to veer away from the pack, work every situation to their advantage, and look cool while doing it. She's also recruited a rocking list of contributors who offer advice on all things cool, including: - Betsey Johnson on personal style
- A step-by-step guide to performing a striptease by Dita Von Teese
- Tips on getting inked by Kat Von D.
- Fashion inspiration from Anna Sui
- Lisa Loeb on how to be the perfect hostess
- Life lessons from Tori Amos
- A drum lesson from Samantha Maloney of Peaches
- Dating advice from Terri Nunn of Berlin
The perfect guide for the female who prefers black nail polish to French manicures, who would only be caught in pearls if they were paired with a cool black tank top, and who prefers Vivienne Westwood and Jean Paul Gaultier to any Klein (Calvin or Anne), Coach, or Kate Spade, Cherry Bomb will have readers taking chances and daring to be different.

I guess the book was all it was meant to be. It related stories from different rock stars, their girlfriends and groupies. Not much substance but some parts were interesting.

I'm a 30 something, and this book seemed to be talking to my contemporaries and I. It's hilarious, and I couldn't stop reading it. I like the short little sections, and how it's broken down.
The Absinthe is a must read! Also the bottle service was pretty good.
A few of the chapters (about how to date a rockstar, how to get past a bouncer) were a little cupcake for what I was expecting. I think the people who pick up this book, could have taken a little bit more of a dose of reality than that.
 Pure fluff... September 16, 2008

This book would make a charming gift, but its presence in the "Self Help" section puzzled me. None of the entries is more than a page or two long, and the overall theme contradicts that of the edgy subculture it is marketed to: strong, independent women. The book instead wastes several pages trying to instruct the reader how to sleep with rock stars and what kind of bikini waxing style is preferred by rock stars (no joke). It's like a throwback to the 50's housewife, with heavy eyeliner and lots of leather.
Honestly, it was like a modified edition of Cosmopolitan magazine, with a snazzier cover, cooler name, and higher price.

This book is definitely a must-have for any "edgy" girl. It has anything from how to be a V.I.P. to applying the smokey-eye makeup. It's absolutely great! It's about time someone wrote a book for us rocker chicks!
