I fell in love with this book from the first page. Set in an mock interview style (think Daisy Jones and the Six), except with a biting and mocking witticism about society, with a history of kung fu movies (truly something I NEVER knew I would care about); this book had me laughing out loud. Interspersed with fun facts about Hollywood, this book was the complete antithesis of everything I originally thought it was going to be, and I immediately passed it along to my best friend. Complete with a full cast including the mobster, the jock stunt double, the snooping paparazzi and the triad family members. But most importantly, it was a book where I could read out parts to my partner as I practiced my Cantonese and he proceeded to mock my terrible pronunciation, while being really confused about why his childhood movies were featured in a book. Which is a truly incredible feat.
