Very interesting

This shows how much influence public opinion has on justice, how a few people can change opinions by not having all the facts.
It made me think about all of these podcasts that only tell you or know part of the evidence, that unless you were at the trial or know all the facts you can not pass judgement. We have to be careful when we try to convince others of what we think we know.

A good start

Reviewed: 07-23-24

I enjoyed this for a first book of this character. It showed great promise, but it was not great. The story only got going later in the book, and then I felt like the ending was rushed. I will definitely read more. I found it very difficult to place this book in time but after a while I just went with it.

This was a great easy listen

Reviewed: 06-15-24

I enjoyed the story and the characters each of the characters were different enough so that you could follow each of them. It was exciting to listen to. The twists and turns were good, out of all books, I have read there were moments in this book that really made me jump which I so enjoyed. Overall, a really good book.

A vert unique take

Reviewed: 04-23-24

I enjoyed this book. It was so different, it didn't go into details of this and that but really explored each film how it linked his career and how it linked to the time that it was made. I found it so interesting even though I don't like most of the films, it showed how what an character Nicolas Cage really is.

This filled in some gaps

I have read Hollys book as well, this was not as good, but I do feel that it filled in some details of what life at the mansion was like towards the end of Hugh Hefner's life. I was surprised at how sad this book was, and how lonely she felt. The writing was just okay I wouldn't recommend it as a book to start if you want to find out real information about the Playboy mansion.

The idea was better than the execution

Reviewed: 02-28-24

I liked the idea of this book, but it was let down by the lack of character development.
the characters were not very well developed and they all belonged in a comic book.
this made it difficult to care about anyone.
then the ending was just so unbelievable which made this book a waste of time.

It was pretty good

This is not as good as the other books that I have read by the same author. However, it held my interest and I really liked the ending.

I got a real feel of why she stayed

Reviewed: 10-08-23

I tried to read this when it first came out, and felt she was biting the hand that fed her.
However after watching the Playboy documentary, I saw all of this from a different perspective and I found myself on her side and I understood why she stayed.
I found it well written and I enjoyed her narration.

Its Ok

I liked it, but it's not one of his best. I like it when Deaver has a fast paced plot, unfortunately this seamed contrived, maybe it needed to be longer.

This is a good book but its bleak

Reviewed: 10-08-23

I really enjoyed this book and I was constantly shout at the characters, I wish they had listened.
It is very bleak but that means it was well written, while keeping your interest.
Lots of others said they did not like the ending, but because I was prepared for the abruptness I liked it because it wa up to the audience to fill in the rest.
