I enjoyed how colorful this whole book was, but you’ll need suspension of belief for some elements.
Lois is ambitious and can’t wait to become a journalist. The villain at Lane’s job was cartoonishly evil though I can’t say that’s not unrealistic for real life executives, sometimes; but only the worst of the worst would say or do these things so blatantly. It’s usually more subtle. The producer or whoever Dante was way accurate tho. Hollywood in a nutshell.
Also, I really like this line: “My mother and I never say ‘I love you.’ Because for what’s between us… that never feels like an enough.”
