Marlise Elizabeth Kast

Running Press Book Publishers, 2007

Fantastic Read!
Many people are attracted to this book because of the celebrity factor. I was drawn to this book to read about the inner struggles of a young woman trying to to identify who she was between her conservative upbringing and the allure of Hollywood. Anyone who has walked the road of trying to figure themselves out can identify with the author. I will admit learning about the tactics tabloid ...

Best Murder of the Year8 reviews

St. Martin's Press, 2002

A thoroughly delightful romp!
This surprising "inside" Hollywood mystery is a delightful romp through the seedy world of Hollywood. It is delightfully satirical of Hollywood and its ways and waywardness. Though very funny, it is also suspenseful and engaging. Perhaps the most delightful gay comedy/mystery since the wonderful Aldyne series and the Grant Michaels masterpieces. Pushes close to the edge of heavyhandedness, but ...

The Future of Reputation: Gossip, Rumor, and Privacy on the Internet5 reviews
Daniel J. Solove

Yale University Press, 2008

Engrossing, Important Book About Our Lives and Reputations in the Internet Age
Once I started The Future of Reputation, I could not put it down. The book brings alive how online gossip, social networking sites, and blogs increasingly define who we are and how were are perceived in today's Information Age. The stories it tells are, at once, laugh-out-loud funny and terrifying. We see the lives of others distorted by vengeful ex-lovers and mocked by teachers. Online ...

This is a great read especially for people who LOVE espresso. This book makes me want to live in the mountains of Washington and open an espresso/gift shop. The journal entries are simple, funny, and fun to read. I highly recommend this book and am looking for a similar read since I am 3/4 done with this book.
  
  











  



  
Gossip: A Book of Poems3 reviews
Thomas Fink

Marsh Hawk Pr, 2001

A Word Collage
I first found this book at the library, then decided I wanted my own copy to have these delightful poems always at hand. If they were visual art they would be collage -- forgotten images, bits of dreams, a flash of childhood color, combined in new and surprising ways. It is risky to take phrases out of context, especially with these poems, but I loved lines like, "Attention shoppers: national ...

Winchell: Gossip, Power and the Culture of Celebrity4 reviews
Neal Gabler

Knopf, 1994

More than just the voice for the "Untouchables."
Although most of us remember Walter Winchell fo rhis rapid-fire narration for the old "Untouchables" television show, he was much more than that. Neal Gabler chronicles Winchell's career and life, but it's his analysis of Winchell's affect on his times and culture that makes this book transcend routine biography. Winchell's became a powerful voice for a time: businessmen wanted to be his ...

Nancy Bell

audible.com

An underrated series
Nancy Bell never disappoints. This cozy muystery series is so charming, but if you haven't read the preceding books , please postpone this one until its turn comes around. You'll probably find yourself reading these books in a Texas drawl which will make the whole experience even funnier because Bell's humor is southern and her turn of phrase is just perfect. These books are such relaxing and ...
