Movie Star by Lizzie Pepper by Hilary Liftin
1.0
I read a review of this book in People magazine, and all I have to say is, People, fire your book reviewer. They led me to believe this was going to be far more scintillating than it could even aspire to be.
Which is disappointing, seeing as how this is the fictionalized story of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. As someone who vaguely followed that story, via long lines at the grocery store and The Soup on E!, I know that this had the potential to be absolutely fascinating.
I kept waiting for that part. Actually, I was waiting for anything real to happen. As it was, I got to the end still waiting.
Plot as thin as rice paper. Characters with none of the charm or appeal of the Based on Real Spectacle people. Boring as watching any of Katie Holmes' films past Disturbing Behavior.
Very disappointed.
