nietzschesghost 's review for:
The Vanity Fair Diaries: 1983-1992
by Tina Brown
When I saw this come up on NetGalley I was looking for a lighthearted read between my usual thriller and YA novels and this seemed ideal. I found it intriguing and felt compelled to read on. This is a book full to the brim with gossip and news heard through the grapevine. I thought I would enjoy it more than I actually did but that isn't to say I didn't find it interesting. There were parts I devoured - the remarks on Trump to name one such part.
I felt a slight fraud for reading it knowing it would be based substantially on gossip as I have never been one of those girls interested in talking about others behind their back, especially in a derogatory manner.
Anyway, it's read now and that is that. I think I will stick to my usual genres for the foreseeable! That said, I do like to discover other books/genres that fall outside of my comfort zone. You can often find real gems that way. This just wasn't for me i'm afraid.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in celebrity and the rich and famous, their behaviour and their lifestyle. It's 3.5 stars from me.
I would like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for my copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
