Hey kids,

I recently received a copy of "Roman Candle: The Life of Bobby Darin," and I'm looking for someone to do a short review for RetroRadar.com. If you're an aspiring journalist, a prolific blogger, and/or a fan of Darin's music, please drop me a line. We can't afford to pay our contributors at present, but you'll see your name in lights--and, heck, you get a free book. ;)

Hugs & blessings,
The Bingstress

How long's the book? If it's not too extensive, I'll take a crack at it.

Don't get me wrong...I love to read--in some ways, that's my job. I've just never done a book review before, so I would be more comfortable with a shorter book to get my feet wet. I imagine the longer the book, the more complicated the review would be.

Just for the record, I am a big Darin fan.

Hey Lucky,

Thanks for the note! The book is 250 pages, which includes about 10 pages of photos. It's standard "book" size (about 6" x 9"), if that helps. My guess is it's a quick and fun read, but my opinion is admittedly biased. ;)

If you're willing to give it a whirl, please shoot me a PM with your mailing address, and I'll get the package right out to you.

All the best,
Leslie
