A book review from life in Hollywood by two Brits from YorkshirE.

The Ultimate Sting: Bookworm UK.
British Book Deals Up Hollywood Reality Guised As Satirical Spoof.

Many are mesmerized by the allure of movie stars and mega hits but is Los Angeles really like that? Not according to two English best friends, self professed non writers, one a busty blonde, the other a boisterous brunette, the co authors of the internet bestseller, Looking for Harvey Weinstein.
Described by industry insiders as scandalous, saucy, sensational and shocking this latest kiss and tell classified directory exposes countless famous faces and where to find them but the 250 page treasure offers the reader so much side splitting blatant comedy, the tit bits of gossip serve only to punctuate the hilarious prose. More knockers, knickers and narcotics than a playmate’s pajama party, this explorer’s guide takes you across two continents on the world’s longest rollercoaster ride, cruising catastrophe in Cannes, psychics in Venice, nudity in New York and toy boys in Tinsel town all courtesy of American Express. Scamming free flights and luxury hotel accommodation in the playpen paradise of the rich and richer is certainly not for the faint hearted however he who dares wins when you’re penetrating the impenetrable. The result; a fast paced essential read for Hollywood virgins, wannabes, dreamers and anyone who loves to laugh.
The A list celebrity cast is over shadowed by the blundering, badgering, ball busting Brits whose work schedule and business itinerary revolves around boozing, brothels and far too many bong hits but reading between the lines there is a distinct whiff of wisdom in the words. Change the way you look at things and the things you look at, change.
Insightful, inspirational and intelligent, this remarkable landmark first edition is an exotic, complex tale that redefines the word hustler.
