Impossibly Able to Put it Down

Ms. Brown again brings Hollywood to life in Impossibly Tongue Tied. Her characters are straight on and 'almost' recognizable. Nina is naive, but not stupid as she does all she can to help her husband, Nathan Harte realize his dream of stardom. All along Nina sees the danger signs but wants to believe in her husband and her life with him, until she is forced to see the writing on the wall. At no time does Nina seem a victim as she gives as good as she gets all along the torrid way through a nasty Hollywood divorce. Ms. Brown delivers with witty dialogue, unexpected twists, and a great heroine to cheer for the whole book through.

Impossible to put down..

Again Josie Brown turned out a witty and smart book on the goings on in Hollywood. I loved the concept of 'O' a phone sex deva and how she did what she did out of love for a man, who clearly didn't deserve it. The inner thoughts of four year old Jake, her son, was sweetly funny, along with a snappy hip dialogue of the adults surrounding him. His dislike for 'fat lips' was hilarious from a childs point of view. Ms. Brown knows Hollywood, along with all the out of this world idiosyncrasies of so many characters who live in that very strange place called 'Planet Hollywood.' She brought each character into a colorful rainbow of living breathing life like dolls of botox, silicon and just plan craziness. 'O' was an orginal idea, taking the world of phone sex to a more personal level. Making me wonder who are these woman who do this? Are they mother's and wives, just trying to make a living? Ms. Brown personalized 'O', never letting us forget throughout the book why she did what she did and the man who blew his one big break all for sex with a star. I found sympathy for the heroine and strength in her convictions to just give her son a better life, and help her cheating husband see his dreams come true. While she made the all important sacrifice of putting her own dreams to bed to be awaken another day. And even a greater sacrifice when her marriage fell apart because she helped her husband get ahead by handing off a CD of his work to a agent, unbeknownst to her, who was in love with her. This book made me laugh out loud as it reminded me of the more important things in life, which wasn't always money and fame.
