07/20/2005 - Ugly Americans

I just finished reading Ugly Americans last night. The book was an entertaining read, no doubt. I did feel duped though. If any of you have read Bringing Down the House, you would know whyI feel this way. Both books are written by the same author, Ben Mezrich. He basically took the same story from his first book and shifted it around a bit and came up with Ugly Americans. OK, it was entertaining, which was all I wanted. A good summer read nonetheless.
