I read Advika and the Hollywood Wives for the divorce prompt, but would also work for Hollywood.

Just finished Burn It Down: Power, Complicity, and a Call for Change in Hollywood, which was excellent. A look behind the scenes at how harassment, racism and abusive working conditions have flourished in Hollywood, with some practical suggestions for change.

I just finished Bill Mumy's autobiography, Danger Will Robinson: The Full Mumy which I also liked a lot, and will use for this prompt. Tons of Hollywood in it.
I started Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion last night. It's short so I'll see if I can read it in two days to check off one more prompt this year that overall was a poor reading year for me.
