The book details Klausner's many romantic and sexual misadventures throughout her 20s. It features the foibles of Julie as she semi-fictionally recounts dysfunctional relationship after dysfunctional relationship.

In July 2010, it was announced that Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's production company, Gary Sanchez Productions, optioned the book for HBO. Lizzy Caplan was attached to star and co-produce.[3]
