mollylark 's review for:

Eve's Hollywood by Eve Babitz
3.5
funny fast-paced

Babitz can be funny, charming, and racist at times. She is occasionally insightful. The best essay was about the Pachucos. 

This collection is at moments completely nonsensical and at other moments so fun. I raced through some parts and skipped over others. There’s some interesting history in here! But some essays were dull/didn’t come together for me.
