Certainly don't intend to judge a book without reading anything but the synopsis, but I really don't approve of airing other peoples' private business to make your book a bestseller (though of course she had enough of her own to talk about, I'm sure).

Should I live my life assuming that everything I say or do might be written down by one of my friends later if they or I get famous? Maybe, but that's sort of constraining. That said, I'm sure it's a fascinating book and I'll download it if I get the chance.
