Starlit by Lisa Rinna
3.0
Starlit drops the reader right into the thick of glamorous Hollywood culture as we follow three Starlets attempting to claw their way to the top. This book has it all: actors, parties, drama, scandal, and lots of classic Hollywood affairs.
If you're looking for thought provoking and sophisticated literature, look elsewhere. This book is a textbook definition of literary crack. Though I didn't care at all about what happened to any of the characters and most of the plot developments were a little too easy, the pages kept turning and the book was devoured in one sitting. The characters were shallow and, in some cases, lackluster, but reading Starlit felt like sitting in a coffee shop and overhearing the gossip at the table next to you. Sure, you don't know the people involved, but their lives sound far more scandalous than studying for your college finals. See what I mean? Literary crack.
Again, not recommended when you're looking for your next favorite book, but Starlit will certainly sit on my bookshelves next to Pretty Little Liars, Twilight, and all the other guilty pleasures I own.
