Unlike other biographies that range from the exposé to the gushing,
Paris Hilton: A Biography is both detailed and objective.

The book also looks at darker moments, including the sex tape, her jail time, and her publicity faux pas. In the end, readers will understand what makes this complex young woman tick—and have a better sense of what it is like to walk a mile in her Manolo Blahniks.
