Not a fan of the narrator. Will try reading physical book instead
Hollywood's Eve: Eve Babitz and the Secret History of L.A. by Lili Anolik
3.0
I really wanted to love this book. I think my issue is that I read Didion and Babitz, before reading this. In both Hollywood's Eve and Didion Babitz, Anolik uses the same facts, the same stories, and the same voice to tell the story of Eve Babitz. It feels like Didion and Babitz is just a copy of Hollywood's Eve with a couple facts about Didion thrown in. It's so disappointing because Anolik has such an incredible writing style. It's fun and quirky, and it keeps the reader engaged. I think I am just struggling to see why she published two almost identical books.

3/5
This was enjoyable, but it wasn't my favorite. I felt that Genevieve and Rowans relationship felt one dimensional. They went from 0 to 100 very quickly. Also, the ending felt very rush. It also seemed like the author had forgotten at some points that the mirrors allowed the demons to watch them during the games. There were points where they discussed things that they would not have wanted and audience to hear.
Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture Audio for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own
