*** and a 1/2 out of ****
Lots of actors and actresses hit one point in their career where they will write an autobiography about their life, and it's supposed to reveal everything, and bla bla bla. So I wasn't that interested when I first picked up Lauren Conrad's L.A. Candy. For those of you who don't know Lauren Conrad, she's the reality star from The Hills, a hit MTV series. This book is NOT an autobiography of Conrad (phew), but it's very similar to her life. However, the novel is very well written, has an interesting plot, and it's something new. I love new things!
The novel focuses around Jane, a young woman who moved to L.A. with her beautiful best friend Scarlett. Pretty normal right? Except they become reality stars on a brand new reality TV show! But never judge a book by its cover. L.A. Candy isn't as sweet as its name. Jane gets caught in the regular celeb treatment. Paparazzi, scandals, and lots of publicity. And one of her co-stars is green with envy, and will do anything to get her off the show, and put herself on the top.
I rate L.A. Candy a *** and a 1/2 out of ****, because it was absolutely amazing. It definitely goes on Chanterelle's top 100, so thus, the good rating. It was missing 1/2 a star, because the writing style could've been less detailed, and could've gotten straight to the point, but nonetheless, I totally recommend this book!
