City of Nets: A Portrait of Hollywood in the 1940s by Otto Friedrich

Did not finish book. Stopped at 26%.
While I was very interested to begin with, I find that there wasn't a cohesive timeline between events within each chapter and it made certain things hard to follow or hard to remember key events when going back. Also if you are a casual movie fan, it makes it near impossible to follow. There are people mentioned that I hadn'  heard of before and the way the book is written requires previous at least general knowledge about certain people. Ultimately it made it impossible to continue. Although I did really enjoy the voice and the detail in which this was written. If I could follow certain parts more easily I would have finished it.
