Cute but not my favorite rom-com read. Good for a palette cleanser.
I told Kyle when I read the synopsis that if this didn't become my new favorite book I'd be livid. I was mostly joking but wow, was NOT disappointed.
I really wanted to enjoy the book but it was too hard to follow and I finished listening to it and I'm still confused what happened when.

I really enjoyed HOW TO FAKE IT IN HOLLYWOOD, so was excited to buy and read this. Absolutely did not disappoint.
A love story, a mental health story, a behind the scenes peek into filming a tv show and celebrity, a tingle book, and a reminder that sometimes we find the right people before we’re ready for them. And then the work begins.
I’ll buy and read anything she writes.

I guess technically I did read this? I skimmed it and skipped some. But obviously it wasn't that memorable because after reading the first page I realized I'd already read/skimmed this previously. So, it's just meh,
This is a romance 9 years in the making. But it's also a slow burn, which you tend to forget about because both characters are so crazy about each other. I really enjoyed Ava Wilder's sophomore novel. She tends to have Hollywood as a backdrop to her books and that always makes a difference, making BTS of Hollywood as a secondary character. The growth Shane and Ava have individually is beautiful to see. I love how there is so much representation of therapy, trauma and mental health. It isn't always done in a realistic and respectful manner and I really appreciate how it was done in this book. Really loved this book and looking forward to many people reading and loving it this summer. Everyone should be going out and getting a copy when it releases!
