review by Maggie Perkovich on show 12th May 2011
I RECEIVED THIS BOOK FROM MY SISTER RECENTLY
AND I ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH.
FOR JOSH HARPER IT MEANS EVERYTHING HE EVER
WANTED, MONEY FAME, ACCLAIM, A SMART
BEAUTIFUL WIFE, A LEAD ROLE ON THE WEST END
STAGE AND A FORMIDABLE COLLECTION OF STAR
WARS MEMORABILIA.
FOR STEPHEN C. MCQUEEN, ON THE OTHER HAND,
SHOW BUSINESS MEANS A DISASTROUS CAREER
PLAYING PASSERS BY, AND DEAD PEOPLE.
HE IS STUCK WITH AN UNFORTUNATE NAME, THE
WORLD’S WORST AGENT, A DAUGHTER HE BARELY
KNOWS AND A JOB UNDERSTUDYING JOSH HARPER
THE AFORMENTIONED STAR, AND 12TH SEXIEST
MAN IN THE WORLD.
THINGS GET EVEN MORE DIFFICULT WHEN
STEPHEN FALLS IN LOVE WITH JOSH’S CLEVER,
FUNNY AND NEGLECTED WIFE NORA.
BUT THEN SUDENLY THE UNDERSTUDY HAS A
BREAK THROUGH, AND A CHANCE TO GET
EVERYTHING, INCLUDING THE GIRL, HIS BIG BREAK
MIGHT BE WITHIN HIS GRASP, BUT IT WILL INVOLVE
A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF LYING AND A CERTAIN
AMOUNT OF ACTING....
THIS BOOK IS VERY FUNNY, AND I AM SURE VERY
TRUE TO LIFE IN THE WORLD OF CELEBS.
I KEPT THINKING JOSH WAS JUDE LAW, AND POOR
OLD STEPHEN WAS SOME ONE LIKE ANY OF THE
ALSO RANS YOU READ ABOUT HOPING FOR THEIR
BIG BREAK.
THE AUTHOR HAS ALSO WRITTEN’ STARTER FOR
TEN’, WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO READ, AND BOTH THESE ARE
NOW RECEIVING HIS TALENT AS SCRIPTWRITER
FOR THE FORTHCOMING FILMS.
I LOVED THE WHOLE STORY, THOROUGHLY
RECOMMENDED.
