Hot reads on Amazon kindle for a cold winter's day
by Joseph Bauer 25 Feb '18

25 Feb '18

"Hollywood Raw" - Movie stars, pants down; "Married with Children exposed; teen idol tells all ... a very risqué memoir in which an insider dishes about celebs gorging themselves with sex, drugs and free swag. Your favorite '80s and '90's sitcom and film hotties in the buff ... "Two Old Jews walk in a Deli" - You don't have to be Jewish to love matzo ball soup, but it wouldn't hurt, either. A stage play in which two alter cockers have a reunion and laugh their tuchases off.
