Started out soooooo slow and didn't pull me in. But after I was about halfway through, it really grew on me. Ended up liking it way more than I expected! I do wish that a few story lines had been wrapped up a little better though. Overall, not a bad read :)
emotional lighthearted medium-paced

I really enjoyed this one. It kept me reading and the price couldn't be beat!

A ver, me lo reí rápido porque es muy entretenido, pero mi parte feminista no puede bancarse un affair en que la mujer sabe que el hombre está con otro y no tener sororidad. Claramente lo pintan a él como un mino y que está ok lo que hace, pero no siento que en la vida real sea tan justificable su comportamiento (en el fondo, un funereke)
Además alfinal queda como muy al aire todo lo que se construía en la historia respecto al futuro de la protagonista, siento que se apuraron en cerrar la trama. Pero insisto, muuuy entretenido.
Última crítica: me hubiese gustado que los personajes fueran más complicados, siento que era muy obvio quién era bueno/malo, siento que como era una narración omnipresente se podría haber jugado más con los matices de la moralidad de cada uno, para no odiar 100% ni adorar completamente.

It was a free download for the kindle. It wasn't terrible, but I got what I paid for.

This book definitely grabs you and won't let you go until you've read every last word. Diana writes an intricate storyline and piles the pressure on the main character until you wonder if they can bear any more. Characters are very well-developed and placed, with an excellent 'villian' in the news director, Tony Scoppio. I definitely thought a few well-placed punches wouldn't go amiss in his direction.

This book must have been lurking on my Kindle for quite some time - I don't remember downloading it but it was the perfect forgettable slush I needed while laid up and feeling ill.

boring, can't finish

An ok book with filled with lots of drama of a television news network and it's star anchor, Natalie Daniels. A new director has been hired to get ratings up and drastically cut costs. His target to fix both? Replace seasoned news anchor, Natalie Daniels, with the young hot Kelly Devlin. Oh and cut Natalie's salary by 80%. Just how far will these women go to hold their place in the spotlight?

The book has plenty of plot turns and drama and would be a better TV series than it held as a book. It seemed to drag on a bit. But still, for a quick no-brainer, drama-seeking guilty pleasure, it was still an interesting read.

I started reading yesterday. couldn't get past page 54. Dropped it.
