It's difficult, because I don't remember much from book one, but I enjoyed everything I read in this book. Alex's ADHD is quite relatable, as someone with ADHD and feeling like you're the root of all problems for those you love.
For a book that follows a tv star, so many parts of this felt so grounded. I read this coming off of a book that wasn't nearly as grounded but had a similar concept and I don't feel great to compare them, but it's hard not to.
Lauren's feelings with her family were also something that I found so relatable. Bad family relationships are so difficult to navigate, especially when you can't just leave the family/relationship.
I really really loved this book and this series, but I find it so difficult to remember that much from the writing of this series that it's difficult to give it a 5 or call it a favorite.
