Product DescriptionDoes having the courage of your ambition inevitably mean losing your soul? Natalie Saladay is back in Hollywood, and now she wants it all: The power to make good movies. The love of a good man. And shell risk just about anything in order to give good Hollywood. In this satirical romance novel of Hollywood, unabashedly ambitious, recently divorced Natalie Saladay is a studio reader whose job is to cull through scripts and books in search of that perfect movie. Natalie knows that the show and business of filmmaking are synonymous, but her boss, the beautiful, ruthless and equally ambitious executive Mona Pearl, dismisses Natalies preference for characterdriven screenplays as movies for nobody. Soon studio intrigue and a tragic film location accident galvanize Natalie into rekindling a hot romance with charismatic producer Benny Gallo, the man she swore she never wanted to see again. Conflicted about the powerful producer and bigtime heartbreaker, Natalie nonetheless persuades Benny into producing a soulful little independentthatcould film set in Central Coast wine country. Mona, on the other hand, is staking her reputation on the studios big budget special effects/action 'tentpole' picture. The entire film business appears in upheaval, but Benny Gallo urges Natalie to trust her own ambition, even as he serves to benefit from her giving good Hollywood. Is he the devil bargaining for her soul? Her Svengali? Or is he the man who got away? As the glitz and glamour of awards season approaches along with the release dates for both radically different movies, as the rivalry between the two women reaches a fever pitch, Natalie realizes she may indeed be risking her soul and even the love of the man shes always wanted all for giving good Hollywood.ReviewThe Devil Wears Prada meets My Hollywood in this witty Hollywood romance. Culler has crafted a smart novel that offers an unexpected look into the world of movie story readers and the Hollywood film industry in general. The characters are sharp, playful and entertaining without falling into typical Hollywood caricature; the plot contains just the right amount and variety of conflicts to keep the reader invested; and the overall story moves forward at a nice clip through a series of deceptively short chapters that leave the reader craving just one more bite. A wonderful, quickwitted alternative to the typical romance novel. KirkusAbout the AuthorChris Culler works as a story analyst for a major film studio yet maintains 'Giving Good Hollywood' is entirely fictitious. She lives in Venice, California with her husband and their cat. Her next book, '101 Ways Your Mother Said You Could Die,' is 'a liar's memoir.'
