Explanation To Books L.A. Candy (L.A. Candy #1)
Los Angeles is all about the sweet life: hot clubs, cute guys, designer...everything. Nineteen-year-old Jane Roberts can't wait to start living it up. She may be in L.A. for an internship, but Jane plans to play as hard as she works, and has enlisted her BFF Scarlett to join in the fun. When Jane and Scarlett are approached by a producer who wants them to be on his new series, a "reality version of Sex and the City," they can hardly believe their luck. Their own show? Yes, please! Soon Jane is TV's hottest star. Fame brings more than she ever imagined possible for a girl from Santa Barbara-free designer clothes, the choicest tables at the most exclusive clubs, invites to Hollywood premieres-and she's lapping up the VIP treatment with her eclectic entourage of new pals. But those same friends who are always up for a wild night are also out for a piece of Jane's spotlight. In a city filled with people chasing after their dreams, it's not long before Jane wakes up to the reality that everyone wants something from her, and nothing is what it seems to be.Details Books Supposing L.A.

Shamefully, I admit I read this book. I also have to admit that The Hills is my guilty pleasure. I always found Lauren to be a rather smart, sensible girl (at least in comparison the the scenery around her). But BOY was I disappointed with this. I guess I didn't really have an expectation coming into it but even having no expectation, I still managed to find myself cringe at each cliche, and boy were there a lot. Thank goodness I just read this from the library and did not actually purchase it.Love...who needed love? As long as she had her books and her friends and an occasional hookup, she was perfectly content.
When nineteen-year-old Jane Roberts is cast in a new reality show, she discovers that the fame and fortune of her new life come at a high price to herself and her friendships.I'm a huge Lauren Conrad fan, so this book is just right for me, I LOVE anything with LC's name on it!I felt as if Lauren wrote her own biography, but if you watched The Hills, you will be surprised to see that Jane is more like Heidi then Lauren, Baby face, wants to organize parties and events, and her BFF is so much
Groundbreaking! A tour de force! Just kidding, I mean it's Lauren Conrad's teen novel... It starts off kinda slow and ho hum for a while, but once the characters in the book begin the filming of the reality show that they're on, it gets very interesting for any fan of The Hills. Although the accounts are "fictional," it definitely gives great insight and potential knowledge about how the producers impacted the storyline and the characters, how the characters interacted with each other, and what
As Jane and Scarlett move to L.A. something happens. Jane and Scarlett move to L.A. to get out of their comfort zones. All their lives they've felt comfortable and safe at home and wanted to change that. In L.A. they get jobs and go to school just like they would have at home, or anywhere else. But something happens that wouldn't have happened in little Santa Barbra. L.A. Candy, a novel by Lauren Conrad is very admirable because the author makes me feel there right next to the main characters,
"LA Candy" was recommended to me by a good friend, but she enjoyed the book a lot more than I did. One reason could be that she is a fan of Lauren Conrad's MTV shows and I don't watch them. I did think I would gain insight to the world of reality tv, but I was disappointed in the small amount of insider info in the book, which could have been summed up in a short magazine article. The story focuses on Jane Roberts and her journey from average recent high school graduate to overnight Hollywood
I can't believe I didn't hate this book! I definitely didn't buy it...I read it and am going to review it for the publisher (not like they're going to publish what I write about it!) so that I can add the book to my school library. What I liked most about the book, insignificant as it is, is the chapter titles, which were sentences or phrases taken from the chapter.I felt like this book was rather autobiographical, which does not imply that I know anything about the life of Lauren Conrad. Good
