I think it was probably because I wasn't in the right mood to appreciate this properly. Maybe if I've grown to be middle-age would I enjoy this. I was simply not the demographic. But this would be a good read for someone whose more interested in Hollywood culture and Los Angeles. Don't get me wrong, I also think this would be good for someone who is interested in a socialite finding their defining interest and making it out in the working world.
Don't let me stop you from reading this! (Maybe I just feel bad not appreciating a book from a decent author.) Maybe it's also because I'm more of a classics reader, and have never read a non-fiction? so this is a bit out of my comfort zone. I've also read a classic right before this, maybe it's the reason I wasn't in the mood.
