Barefoot in the City of Broken Dreams by Brent Hartinger
4.0
After four novels worth of trials and tribulations, a grown-up Russel Middlebrooke is with the man of his dreams, Kevin. Now they're moving to the Hollywood in hot pursuit of Russel's dream of becoming a screenwriter.
Upon arrival they fall in with an eccentric group of characters who are also looking to live the dream, including Russel's former flame, Otto. Russel feels like his dream is finally coming true when he is summoned by an old and storied producer who wants to make his dreams come true and turn his screenplay into a film! But is it too good to be true? And what about the spirits that haunt Russel and Kevin's new apartment?
Once again, Russel learns valuable life lessons about love, friendship, and the life of the creatives. An overall great novel with only a few small pacing issues. I loved it and cannot wait for the next entry!
