How to Plot a Payback by Melissa Ferguson
3.25
fast-paced

I so wanted to love this more but it just felt a bit flat to me. I never really felt a connection to any of the MCs.

Finn has a lifelong nemesis in Lavender Rhodes, though she has no Idea. Lavender meanwhile is a sweetheart actress from a highly rated sitcom 10 years running. When Finn gets a job as a writer, he's determined to plot his payback through scripts. They fail mostly.

I really didn't get that Finn kept getting fired and rehired by a top dog that promised he might not make it past a few months. 

I recognize that we can't love them all even if it's an author we adore and Ill keep really get books, this just wasn't a favorite.
