How far would you go to get what you wanted? That's the question author Catherine McKenzie addresses in Spin - a delectable debut novel that takes listeners into the connected worlds of pop culture, tabloid journalism, and celebrity rehab. The story of a newbie undercover gossip reporter who follows a troubled starlet into a rehab clinic intending to dig up all the dirt she possibly can, Spin is smart, hip, utterly engaging contemporary fiction in the vein of Jennifer Weiner and Emily Giffin.

By Holly Gilliatt I loved the premise of the book as soon as I read the blurb, and this novel exceeded my expectations. Catherine McKenzie is a very talented writer that deftly accomplished three things: kept me compulsively turning the pages, made me laugh out loud more times than I could keep track of and tugged at my heart, too. Loved all the music intertwined into the story (and cool playlist at the end of the book). Highly recommend if you enjoy biting humor and a compelling storyline. I look forward to her next release this summer!

Once I started reading this book last night, I was unable to put it down. I spent a lazy Sunday reading it until I was finished. Now, I'm sad to see it go.Katie is quirky, free spirited and lost in the world that she has always known. After showing up drunk to her dream job interview, she takes an offer from the same company to go to rehab to follow a celebrity diva and get the inside scoop on her life. But Katie gets so much more than she bargains for.Catherine, the author, really did her research on this one. Her portrayal of rehab seems logical. I have never been there myself, but have known others who have and I'd say there is quite a bit of truth in what she writes. She takes a quirky spin on it, and really develops Katie's character down to the way she thinks about whether she is an alcoholic, and the way she acts in regards to it. Katie has this conflicting dialog playing in her head, the way a person does when they are trying to justify their actions to make it fall in their favor, in this case, a person without a drinking problem. There is a lot of emphasis on this aspect, which really makes this book work. I love the lingo that Katie uses, and Catherine develops her character so well, that I knew what Katie was going to do next. Catherine's knowledge of AA was very evident in this book, and she covers it well.I thought the ending was a little cliché, but the book was great! I absolutely loved how she wrote what goes on in Katie's mind, and she focused on her personality traits that run right along an addicts personality traits. That is what kept me enthralled in this book from beginning to end. I highly recommend this little gem!

It's not that there isn't angst and deep or serious issues threaded in and out of SPIN, but more that the author didn't weigh the novel down with those "issues," instead opting to keep the tone light, which I appreciated. I rooted for the MC, Kate - who self-denies her way into a hole, that is, until circumstances force her to face up to that denial and dig her way out, dirtied and spitting.The beginning pages of SPIN show an immature and careless Kate, one who doesn't seem to want to grow up. All Kate wants is to "land her dream job" - but she even sabotages that, just as she does her relationships, and her friendships. When her "self-sabotage" leads her, in a strange kind of backward way, back to her dream job, she jumps at the chance--even if that means a little lying (or a lot of lying) and a little pretending (or a lot of pretending!) and losing respect and friendships . . . little does Kate know the tables will turn and she will find out things about herself while searching to find out the "scoop" on an unsuspecting celebrity.Humorous, fun, at times intense, witty, charming, and poignant, SPIN kept me turning the pages.There were times I asked, "Hmmm, could this really happen? I'm not so sure . . ." but then I thought, "Who cares?" for if the author makes me believe in her world, then I believe. I was willing to follow wherever Kate (and Mckenzie) led me. At the end of the book, I had a big ole grin plastered -- although, I did hate to say goodbye to these characters I grew to care about and enjoy spending time with.One other caveat: It's a shame this book isn't available in the states - I had to order through Amazon Canada - the shipping costs were almost as high as the cost of the book - I can see where this could deter sales, and, again, that would be a shame.
