I can't stop thinking about this book—a captivating read that captures everything I love and hate about Los Angeles。 In fact I may love and hate Los Angeles even more after reading。 I was hooked from beginning to end。 I don't usually read nonfiction， but I loved the author's novel "The Last Kid Left"， so I gave it chance and I'm so glad I did。 I'm recommending it to all my Los Angeles friends so I can have people to discuss it with。 I can't stop thinking about this book—a captivating read that captures everything I love and hate about Los Angeles。 In fact I may love and hate Los Angeles even more after reading。 I was hooked from beginning to end。 I don't usually read nonfiction， but I loved the author's novel "The Last Kid Left"， so I gave it chance and I'm so glad I did。 I'm recommending it to all my Los Angeles friends so I can have people to discuss it with。 。。。more

Thanks to Netgalley and FSG for the ebook。 This is book of articles that shows Los Angeles from varied angles。 There’s the self help seminars that veer slightly towards being a cult， he puts you inside catastrophic fires and mudslides， he follows a struggling actress who finds a Golden Ticket in her feature film going to Sundance and he follows an older character actor who works just enough to keep him going from bar to bar， betting on horse races all day （and losing）。 There are also sections de Thanks to Netgalley and FSG for the ebook。 This is book of articles that shows Los Angeles from varied angles。 There’s the self help seminars that veer slightly towards being a cult， he puts you inside catastrophic fires and mudslides， he follows a struggling actress who finds a Golden Ticket in her feature film going to Sundance and he follows an older character actor who works just enough to keep him going from bar to bar， betting on horse races all day （and losing）。 There are also sections dealing with racism and homelessness。 The author throws himself into these stories instead of reporting from afar， making these stories really shine with details that most might overlook。 。。。more
