Not a favorite but not horrible. I personally felt like there really wasn’t an exciting plot line happening. Just a typical story

Fast read, kinda cute. I enjoyed reading her doing the job and being able to master it slowly. But otherwise, it felt like everything was too easily solved and not earned.

I wanted to like this so much more than I did. It was an uneven mess with plot lines that were often forgotten until the end. Too much was happening and yet nothing at all happens over nearly 300 pages. Some scenes were fun but on the whole, I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone else. 2.5 stars

 It reads like a quirky cozy mystery but not strong on the mystery elements. A mid-life self discovery tale with a really strange trigger and journey but it ended up working. Some great feminist tones!

An enjoyable read!

Interesting look at what goes on with costuming on a movie set - lovely characters and a unusual twist - with a happy ending!

I absolutely devoured this book. Another new author, found on KU for me. It was an original story and the character had real growth. Funny with real emotional moments here and there, I consider this one a must read.

Ends well

Started off a bit repetitive for my liking but I'm glad I stuck with it because the ending was perfect! The story was inspiring and hopeful.
fast-paced

Fun and delightful read! I really liked the aspect of film sets and how it all works behind the scenes!

So sweet

I love Poppy's character development in this and found the ending to be perfect. "There's No Coming Back from This" is an enjoyable and fun read!
