Waiting on Wednesday (44): Confessions of a Rebel Debutante: A Memoir

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Confessions of a Rebel Debutante: A Memoir
Confessions of a Rebel Debutante: A Memoir by Anna Fields due out February 1, 2011 from Penguin / Berkley.

Book Description
A fond, funny Southern-fried memoir about growing up a proper young lady...or not.
 
How does a North Carolina native go from being a tomboy with catfish guts on her overalls to becoming the next Scarlett O'Hara? Turns out, it's not so easy. Too smart, too tall, too fat, too different...Anna Fields was a dud at debbing.

From tea parties to teased hair to where to hide mini bottles of liquor inside poufy crinoline ballgowns, Anna reveals all-in a hilarious, behindthe-scenes glimpse into Deb Culture, where for a Southern belle, "the proof is in the pouf."

Unless, of course, she rebels...
