FAME JUNKIES by Jake Halpern

This is Tauri Miller's Review.

I read FAME JUNKIES by Jake Halpern and I found that it was an interesting perspective on the subculture that is Hollywood. The book is less of a historical account or informative text, and more of a social scientific analysis of what drives America to strive for Fame above all else.

I would recommend the book if you want an in-depth look at the social implication of America's obsession with Fame and Hollywood celebrities. I wouldn't recommend the book if you are looking for a book about the history of business aspects of Hollywood.

Overall:

3 out of 5 Stars
