Eight top books on dining, drive-ins, and road trips

One of eight top books on dining, drive-ins, and road trips, as tagged at Kirkus Reviews:
THE STARS IN OUR EYES: THE FAMOUS, THE INFAMOUS, AND WHY WE CARE WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT THEM by Julie Klam

From the Kirkus review:
Entertaining but shallow. Klam is perhaps too sensible a writer to care much about the filtered world of celebrities, and her fundamental indifference to the subject, no matter how she struggles to overcome it, makes the book seem less than essential.
A collection of essays on our culture's fascination with celebrities.
Read about another book on the list.
