I enjoy reading about celebrities, so this book intrigued me when I saw it. However, I was disappointed because it is not an enjoyable read at all. The author writes as if he is the most important thing, which was annoying. I cannot stand reading books by arrogant authors. The scientific data was also boring. Do yourself a favor and skip this one!

I wanted to like this book. I’m typically fascinated by unheard stories of Hollywood. Especially in the 60s-80s. So this book should, by all accounts, be my cup of tea. But it wasn’t.

The writing is lacking. It fell flat and did not evoke enough imagery to keep you engaged. In some chapters, it felt like Bloom had an inflated sense of self importance and was trying to convince the reader of his “closeness” to celebrities. It didn’t feel genuine.

You might pick up some interesting tidbits here and there, but overall, this book was far from my new favorite.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for allowing me the opportunity to read an ARC for this book in exchange for an honest review.

I selected this book because I thought it would talk about Michael jackson. I couldn't follow it because there was alot of scientific terms in it along with alot of errors. i want to thank netgalley, the publishers, and the author for giving me a chance to read this book.
