Nora Goes Off Script by Annabel Monaghan
3.75
When Nora wrote her divorce story into a screenplay, she didn’t expect it to become one of the biggest films of the year. She definitely didn’t expect to fall in love with Hollywoods biggest heartthrob, Leo Vance, who plays the lead in the movie.
I devoured this book. Such an entertaining story and I was really rooting for the characters. This story just didn’t feel real to me. I know that’s kind of the point (Nora’s living out a huge fantasy for many single housewives, heck any housewife), but I still struggle with that. Nora and Ben’s marriage breakdown did feel SO real though, so it was hard having this relationship with Leo feel so unreal. Leo’s relationship with the kids was great. Disliked the insta love and complete lack of communication between Leo and Nora that could have saved both of them so much pain.
Despite some of my issues with this book it was still really good. 3.75 stars rounded up to 4 for me.
