Uneven in tone. This book plays out like a light crime caper but the subject matter is very dark. It missed its potential to say something larger about the nature of fame stardom and celebrity. The character arc was also another missed opportunity. It felt unearned the main characters personality felt underdeveloped, despite the amount of time we spent in her head.
