ridgewaygirl's review against another edition
4.0
Alison Gaylin's thriller, Trashed, is set in the tawdry world of tabloid reportage. Desperate for a job in her field, Simone takes a job for one of the least respected celebrity-focused tabloids and in the process of learning how to steal trash and sneak into private parties she finds evidence that the suicide of a has-been starlet might have been murder.
This isn't literary fiction by any stretch, Gaylin isn't pushing any boundaries or subverting the genre, but the writing is solid, the plot does not insult the reader's intelligence and the novel was fun to read.
