This was pretty light and way less cheesy than I thought it would be. A pretty enjoyable, quick read.

Predictable? Yeah, it is. But it's predictable in a happy feel good way that I honestly enjoyed reading.

This was the YA novel equivalent of a Disney Channel movie. Not offensive, but not offering anything beyond surface-level.

Lexi has been told many times that she looks just like rock star Kari Kingsley. When she's asked to be Kari's double, she decides to accept against her mother's wishes. Though the money is a temptation, it isn't why Lexi decides to go to LA. She goes because she wants to meet the father she's never known. (Which I liked). And so her adventure begins.

The only thing I didn't like about this is that everytime Lexi talks about her boyfriend, Grant, she only mentions his good looks as incentive to dating him. Which was really superficial and kind of got on my nerves.

Janette Rallison writes really cute books. But I have to say that this was not my favorite of hers. While I enjoyed the fact that there was less fluff in this novel, Kari annoyed me to no end. Annoying characters totally get on my nerves. But Kari took basically no actual responsibility for her actions which got on my nerves.

I liked how Rallison dealt more with harder issues than in her previous novels, and I enjoyed the overall novel if not specific characters and situation. So I enjoyed the novel but one of the characters annoyed me.

First things first thanks to cookie for recommending me Janette Rallison's books, you're so helping me girl ;D

Cerita singkat tentang Alexia Garcia yang ditawari pekerjaan jadi double nya penyanyi remaja terkenal Kari Kingsley karena wajah mereka yang sangat mirip. Yang buat aku suka dari cerita ini ga ada faktor kebetulan yang aneh ketika 2 remaja yang sangat mirip ini bisa ketemu karena ternyata mereka sebenarnya adik-kakak satu ayah jadi yaa wajar-wajar aja mereka mirip. Mereka bisa ketemu itu juga bukan kebetulan tapi gara-gara uploadan foto Alexia yang disebar oleh teman sekolahnya di berbagai medsos jadi yaa ga sengaja manajer si Kari ini tahu tentang keberadaan Alexia.

Memang di awal buku agak ngebosenin juga sih tentang Alexia yang harus adaptasi di lingkungan baru dan gaya hidup barunya. Tapi pas muncul Grant Delray *sigh penyanyi pop terkenal, di situ ceritanya baru mulai seru xD
