Started reading "Do travel writers go to hell?" by Thomas Kohnstamn. The author quits his well paying wall street job for a dream job travel writing for lonely planet. The problem is they don't pay him nearly enough to travel to brazil and write reviews for all the places he's supposed to visit so he ends up writing reviews for places he doesn't visit and is bribed hookers and drugs in return for 4 star reviews of hotels and dining places. The author claims this is the dark side of the guidebook industry and pretty common. So far it's a great read.
