Lauren Conrad Has a Book Deal and You Don’t

September 11th, 2008 by Evil Beet


Sigh.

LC just landed a three-book deal with HarperCollins to pen a young adult fiction series called LA Candy.

The series tells “the behind-the scenes story of a young girl who moves to L.A. and unexpectedly becomes the star of a reality television show,” according to a press release. “The character soon realizes that “everyone wants something from her, and nothing is what it appears to be,” the release states.

And of course now Lauren’s being all like “I care about books!” She says: “I’ve always loved books that I could lose myself in, ones that would transport me to another place, but had characters I could relate to. I’m so excited to have this opportunity to write books like that for other readers.”

How much you wanna bet Lauren won’t even end up reading this book before it hits stores? Because we all know she won’t be writing it.

Says the senior VP of Fiction at HarperCollins: “We’re bracing ourselves for a blockbuster publication.”

You know what, though? It could be worse. It could be Heidi with the book deal. I guess this is alright in comparison.

    Are They fucking crazy?

    What kind of book is this uneducated turd brain going to write? The Cat in the Hat already came back.

    Maybe…How to regurgitate Green Eggs & Ham???

  2. Lissy says:

    Is there any information on whether she is going to learn how to read without following the words with her finger for public readings?

  3. jk says:

    But can she write? And does it really matter? Jackasses will be drooling all over themselves to buy it and then stare vacantly at it. It will be on the best selling list, almost guaranteed.

    And, please don’t disparage Theodore Geisel by likening him in any way to this train wreck. Geisel was a master of the written word. His works are brilliant in their simplicity. Lauren Conrad is something, well, other than that.

    Yeah, she’s simple in her brilliancy.

    Move over JD Salinger! There is a new author of the young and angst-ridden!

    GAG.

  7. str says:

    things keep happening to her that OTHERWISE would require some kind of talent

    strange, that

    Uh, I would prefer to read Heidi’s book.

    tss, you are so angry; or maybe you’re just so f*%*$ing expressive. Either way, it’s interesting. Now, go on comment on something insulting/witty/aggressive. Huh.

    Next stop - Hills: The Movie…

  11. Caz2 says:

    How exactly can we “normal people” relate to that storyline? :/

  12. TSS says:

    jemms, don’t try and confuse me by typing like a retarded squirrel-monkey with arthritis.

    I’m on to you lady!

  13. joan says:

    that is fucking ridiculous. the only people who should get book deals are writers. who cares about the stupid story, and if its stuff she’s been through, a real writer doesn’t have to go near something and can still write a great story about it.

  14. jemms says:

    Squirrel-monkey with arthritis? now that is a hybrid species!

  15. jemms says:

    tss, be nice to me. wink, winky. cheers.
