Growgirl is a 2012 book by former actor Heather Donahue about dropping out of Hollywood and moving to a semi-collective society in Nevada County, California's Sierra Mountains[1] called "Nuggettown" to become first a "pot wife" then embrace the "backbreaking, spirit-sucking work" of a cannabis grower.[2]

Critical reception

[edit]

The Hollywood Reporter called the work "always funny and surprisingly sweet".[3] Publishers Weekly said it was "wry, with a nuanced distance from the events".[4] Kirkus Reviews called it "at times funny, sensitive or filled with obscenities...an intimate look at a woman's yearlong search for her place in the world".[5]
