A sexy, talented, (relatively) sane, young actress goes to Hollywood to find fame, fortune and love. And if this were the movies, by the end she'd have all three. But this being the real Hollywood, things don't quite work out that way. When Amy falls head over heels for mega talent agent Richard Berg, she's confident her newfound love will connect her to her acting dreams. And why wouldn't she believe this? Richard works at a top agency in Beverly Hills; invites her to all his movie premieres; hosts a basketball game every Saturday on the tennis court of his 8,000 square foot Hollywood home, where the "who's who" in entertainment show up to dribble; and just asked her to move in. Little did Amy know that moving out of her rundown 600 square foot apartment into Richard's palatial pad, rubbing shoulders with Hollywood A-listers would do little more than connect her to a granola bar. He Put My Buddha In The Freezer chronicles how, over a decade while traveling in the hippest of Hollywood circlesAmy almost found love, almost found fame, definitely found the best yoga studio; and at last found, perhaps not what she was looking for, but exactly what she needed in the last place she would have thought to look. As He Put My Buddha in The Freezer takes readers along Amy's journey through hope, joy, pain, and a hefty helping of hilarity, many will see themselvesbecause in so many ways, we have all been there. But we make it through to the other side, stronger, braver, better.
