This was a definite page turner! I loved the premise of this book and being able to dive into the mind of a reality TV contestant. The author explored how reality TV shows leverage consumerism and capitalism to extract shallow, base content from participants. I think she could have explored these ideas more deeply, and the ending left something to be desired for me...but maybe that's the point. These shallow forms of entertainment don't always invite deeper thinking.
