This book is certainly not for everyone (it takes place during the filming of a porno movie) but it was a fast, funny read.

Totally freakin' awesome.

When Chuck writes well he can make just about anything interesting - even a storyline that simply must have been inspired by daytime soap operas. I especially enjoy the little bits of trivia (the fates of silent movie stars, the lengths others went to in order to succeed) that send me running to fact check on the internet. It's his use of detail that I've always loved and this book plays up to his strength in spades. I've read it at l ...more

Hmm... Not his best work - a clever twist at the end saved it from the two star rating I had in mind throughout most of the book.

I tried a few of his books but I will just conclude that they are not for me and that's that. ...more
