ABOUT
THE BOOK

Elle Woods, University of Southern California socio-political jewellery design major, is blonde, spoiled, creative and desperately in love with Warner Huntingdon III. But when Warner announces he’s dumping her to go off to Stanford Law School, Elle decides that a little thing like law school won’t come between them. Anything Warner can do, she can do better.
Elle’s Stanford misadventures begin badly, and it seems the one place blondes definitely don’t have more fun is law school. But then Elle is made an intern on the Murder of Malibu case, defending one-time fitness queen Brooke Vandermark from the charge of murdering her billionaire husband. Seizing the opportunity to prove her worth to Warner and her fellow classmates, she vindicates Brooke and all who are blonde at heart with a tip any Cosmo girl should know.
