Andy Cohen, a Bravo tv show host, producer, and author, was reading The Andy Warhol Diaries when he was inspired to keep his own diary for a year. Even though it was “just” a day to day peek into the life of a 40-something single, successful, gay, Jewish man living in NYC, it was a tremendous amount of fun to read.

It was an interesting look at what the life of a relatively down to earth celebrity is like behind the scenes: navigating the NYC dating scene as a 40-something gay Jewish man using Tinder, finding just the right pet to adopt in order to have “something other than himself to worry about,” forgetting some celebrities names and getting on the bad side of others...the list goes on. Because I watch his show, I heard the entire book in his voice, which made it even better. His family is wonderful - his mom made me laugh uproariously - as do his friends.

I would recommend this to anyone who loves celebrity gossip. :)
