Fame by Misadventure

De: Will Sterling

Narrado por: André Santana, Marisha Tapera, Crystal Lee, Emily Lawrence, Will Sterling

Chinatown meets Real Housewives in this Hollywood “Whydunit.”

When former child actor and reality TV star Molly Mandrie commits suicide, her co-stars, producers, and fans’ lives are thrown into chaos. Under the controlling thumb of the Applause Network and its executive producer Guy Maker, cast members Tamara, Andrea, Fievel, and Elliot struggle to face how they may have contributed to Molly’s death.

Meanwhile, big-time movie star and self-proclaimed “Molly’s biggest fan” Hector Espinoza uses his industry access to ask big questions. If Guy Maker was the man who gave her a second chance at fame, and Molly's best friend, why didn’t he go to her funeral?

And fifteen-year-old influencer Nixon Bryce, who rose to fame mimicking Molly’s drunken antics, finds her dysfunctional relationship with her mother pulled into the fray as Applause looks to her to be their fresh face.

In this deep-dive into the dramatic and dangerous world of reality TV, the cameras have stopped rolling and the makeup is off. Characters' stories intertwine as they search for the truth about Molly’s death, racing towards an emotionally crippling conclusion that will change their careers—and lives—forever.

So Dark but Realistic!

The reality of Hollywood and celebrity life! It's not all glamourous and bright... It has a dark side to it that people in general neglect to see, especially when idolising stars. Will Sterling details the stories of different characters in a manner that's so realistic: dark yet funny at times. This book showcases the often ugly truth behind stardom in a humorous way.
The different narration voices and background music brought this audio book to life and gave each character to life! Great job!
I highly recommed this book to anyone interested in learning about the inner workings of Hollywood, when the cameras are turned off.

The Ugly Truth!

It was an interesting audiobook, dealing with several characters but every character distinguished in its own way and life.
Although very messed up: ""They were simply who they had been made into"" (as Andrea says)
This audiobook gives its listeners a combination of mystery, drama, "behind the scenes" stories, gossip, fame,...
People are always interested in celebrities and their lives which become a public interest. Many wish to have their lives when they have no clue what horrible, difficult, corrupt and deeply damaged lives celebrities lead. It is the ugly truth. This audiobook shines the light on the lives of celebrities behind the scenes and when the lights are turned off. I felt their pains, their sufferings and the constant battles that they lead.
I loved the narration. It was simply superb! The narrators did a great job in bringing the characters of the book alive with all the nuances and the tones they used. Background music was adding some spice to the scenes when required. It was really great!
If you are a fan of Hollywood celebrities and are interested in their life drama and issues, this will be definitely something for you.

A gripping book!

Waw! An impressive audiobook. Although not my favorite topic, this audiobook has got everything you are looking for. It's a great story with amazing narration that kept me wondering, "What happens next?"
The ending was something I did not expect at all.
Overall, it was fun
