THE PERILS OF PAULETTE

A Life that Reads Like a Movie…

• Paulette Cooper was the first person to really expose Scientology – and they retaliated with “Operation Freakout,” having her arrested and almost killed.

• She successfully illegally stowed away for a week on a luxury ocean liner.

• She authored 26 books and traveled the world for free as a travel writer.

• She wrote hundreds of stories for the National Enquirer, and interviewed Marlon Brando, Jackie Kennedy, and many other A-list celebs.

• She survived the Holocaust in orphanages as a child after her parents were murdered in Auschwitz – in a story with as many twists as a thriller.

The Perils of Paulette is filled with amazing stories…from life in Palm Beach to (kinky) well-known celebrities. Brutally honest, fascinating, hilarious, and heartwarming, this is a unique can’t-put-down writer's memoir topped by a romantic happily-ever-after story.

The Perils of Reads like fiction but it’s all true!

This book by author, Paulette Cooper, is phenomenal! It is a memoir of her life from birth on. She is a survivor of the Holocaust. She was a stowaway on a ship just because she wanted to prove she could be. She called out Scientology for their cult ways. She was a dare-devil. risk-taker, rumbustious young lady who grabbed life by the horns. She has been writing since she could and then the writing became her life-long work. She has written many books, with this one being her most recent. Her book shows what an exceptional writer she is. Reading her words flowed so smoothly, I couldn’t stop reading. I very much enjoyed her matter-of-fact style of holding nothing back and being genuine. She currently lives in Florida with her husband where she still continues writing about different people with their pets.

Paulette reached out to me via email, sending me a copy of her book to read and review. I cannot tell you how honored I am that she considered my thoughts important. Paulette Cooper Noble is the closest I’ve ever been to meeting someone famous. Although, we didn’t meet physically, I feel by reading her words that I was able to visit and get to know her. Thank you Paulette!

I hope everyone who reads this review decides to read the book. It’s full of different emotions, most importantly, it is her true life story. Enjoy!!!

PBW 5.0 out of 5 stars What an exciting life!

I really enjoyed this fascinating, frank, and well-written memoir. It is filled with the adventures of a true wonder woman who succeeds despite facing adversities that would cause others to wilt. Lavishly sprinkled with celebrities, sex, frightening threats, and thrills, The Perils of Paulette will have you reading it all at one sitting.
