Could‘ve used more Ava and less Peter, but a good, sometimes brutal, often funny read nonetheless.

Got my steamy tea and my decadent chocolate to read this steamy and decadent book! Just couldn't resist this Hollywood tell-all plus I'm a big Ava fan. And already, it's curling my hair! ☺️ #litsypartyofone #eclecticreadathon

Really engrossing but feels exploitative near the end when you find out that Gardner never wanted the book to be finished or published.
