*** (three stars)
A quick, mindless read -- like junk food or TV. Three weeks in the life of a 34-year-old woman who appears on "So You Want to Be Filthy Rich!" (a thinly-disguised "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"). The show is hosted by a very Regis Philbin-like Kingman Fenimore, who wears monochromatic dark shirts and ties and also hosts a morning chat show called "Gabbing! With Kingman and Tracy Ellen." Published in 2001, this book is really dated. And some of the multiple-choice TV trivia questions that open each chapter are laughably easy:
What line of work was George Jefferson in?
What was Thurston Howell III's wife's name?
