It wasn’t perfect by any means. And the parts I didn’t like I REALLY didn’t like but the parts I did I LOVED and that was enough to make me fully enjoy this book.

TJR has outdone herself once again. Is it possible to love an author this much despite giving you characters that make you question if it's right to love them if they were real? Because I felt exactly what Monique did for Evelyn. I didn't like her, but I very much loved her at the same time. She actually reminded me a lot of my all-time favorite, Scarlett O'Hara, who's inarguably a detestable character. Both were selfish and ambitious, but both also displayed the most authenticity than your typical martyr female protagonist.

Wise title. Great book. Brilliant author. Iconic character. Taylor's Evelyn may not have truly existed, but everyone who knows her - myself included - will forever remember her as an incomparable star. I want more books like this so badly!!!

It’s rare that a book compels me to read so much that I lose track of time and read in places I typically don’t, but this book did just that. Sapphic angst and yearning plus stories of Old Hollywood hit just the right spot for me. I’ll definitely be thinking about this book for a long time after finishing, and the movie is going to absolutely destroy me when it comes out.
