One thing I really enjoyed was how mental health was a big focus of the novel. Guillory handled topics like therapy, living with anxiety, access to mental health services, and other related topics very well and with grace. I think she highlighted some real issues while also normalizing people going to therapy and working through anxiety.
I did enjoy the romance between Ben and Anna. Their relationship felt like it took a really natural course and I liked reading about the times they spent together and how they interacted with one another. I also loved the Hollywood angle and thought that it was a lot of fun.
I don't know if I can really pinpoint what didn't work for me in this book. It just didn't hold the same sparkle that some of the other in the series have for me. If you enjoy her other books you should definitely read this one too because some of the past characters reappear and it's fun to see what they're up to now but you don't necessarily need to move it to the top of the TBR pile.
