This book is horrible. I expected something made for normal people, but this really is only for those planning parties for celebrities. One piece of advice was about parties had at the Playboy mansion which offered no true advice. There were goofy tidbits from celebs like don't run out of alochol. It was obvious the celebs just gave generic quotes and of course the authors thought a celeb comment would make it better. It did not. This book was so useless for me and taught me nothing. Unless you are planning parties for celebs, save your money.
