I'd Rather Be Famous - Thryft
I'd Rather Be Famous - Thryft

Fame isn't always what it seems.

This book would be a good read for anyone interested in the world of reality television and the consequences of chasing fame. The most unique and distinctive feature of the book is its exploration of the difference between the perceived glamour of fame and the reality of being constantly in the public eye. Readers may appreciate the message of the book about staying true to oneself, and the potential pitfalls of sacrificing genuine relationships and personal values for temporary fame.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
