I finished this just before this year's Oscars started, haha.
I am a huge movie nerd and I try to watch the Oscars every year. In fact, I've been making a point to watch all of the films nominated for Best Picture before the awards are given out for the last few years too.
And so, I really enjoyed this book! I would say the first half to two-thirds of the book are more just about Hollywood in general with a loose thread of the Academy Awards to tie things together and the rest is more solidly about the Oscars, but all of it is interesting and well written. I'm not sure that there's anything shockingly new revealed here, but the detail and breadth of the stories are a lot of fun.
