The book arrived today and I just finished it. Could not put it down. Page after page of anecdotes and real life adventures of a young girl from a foreign land experiencing life. From the hot Fernando Valley and the au pair to porn stars to trendy (and very expensive) Brentwood and beyond, the author paints a vivid picture of life in 60's California.
A real learning curve indeed. This is a must buy. Let your fingers do the walking and peck out the needed info and click buy now. (Full Disclosure) I am also an author with Crimson Cloak and what some would call a member of the Hollywood scene. So I can add the authenticity one might want to her story. Ready, now buy it.

How customer reviews and ratings work
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
