From the Library Journal: Maas's chronicle of her writing career, which spanned over a quarter of a century, is a valuable contribution to the literature on women in Hollywood .. Rejecting studio politics, Maas ultimately paid the price for playing maverick.
In her own defense: I know I've been hard on the motion picture industry [in the book] .. [T]he facts and the stories I tell - about the plagiarism and the way I was handled and the way other writers were handled - are true.
