Ready for our first novel of Fall 2010? You are! Let's read Last Night at Chateau Marmont by Lauren Weisberger, a favorite author our bookclub readers. To kick off our reading, check out this personal interview with the author:
And to see what others are saying, take a look at these:
"Last Night at Chateau Marmont makes a good antidote to dreadful summer TV — it's a haunting look at what might happen if your life became a reality show but you never signed off on the cameras." - Entertainment Weekly
"My experience with this particular author is that I read "The Devil Wears Prada" quite a while ago and loved it from beginning to end... The reviews were so negative about Chasing Harry Winston that I didn't even borrow it from the library. I am not sure what inspired me to pick this novel up, but I think I was in the frame of mind where I was looking for another TDWP-type book, so I went back to the source.
Snappy dialogue, detailed descriptions of fabulous clothes, rich and famous people, and a peek into the lifestyles of the (newly) famous. A book that I finished in 24 hours since I couldn't put it down and had to find out what happened. The ending could have gone a couple of different ways and it wasn't until I got there that I knew for sure what the result would be.
Fun, fast, witty - I may have to go back and try Chasing Harry Winston after this." – Amazon Customer, Holly Kincaid "Book Addict"
"This is a story of a couple, Brooke and Julien Alter. Brooke has a concrete plan for her life and Julien has a huge dream based on his talent. What occurs is the collison of both concepts and reality. Much of this story is not new, but the underlying morale is that wherever life leads you, no matter how you are blessed or burdened, who you truly are should be your primary focus amid the hoopla, the pain and everyday drama. Being true to yourself and those you love can steer you on a more positive path that can reinforce the basics of finding our path and our bliss." – Barnes & Noble Customer, Deveraux
