4.0

Mags and Ava are two young women who are struggling to find themselves, and not lose control under the constant judgement and scrutiny of the public and the people around them. Their lives are filled with tragedy and toxins and they are simply trying to tread water and not drown when everything is working against them.

The first half of the book was really interesting. Slow and steady as these two young girls inch towards adulthood while the world watches their every move. The second half sped up considerably and I was u able to put it down. The points where their lives cross were beautiful and I found myself crying at a few points really rooting for them to have some sort of break from the toxic people and lifestyles.

Raw and Real. I love the writing style. The alternating chapters between Mags and Ava, as well as the forums and articles included to see what the public thought and how they treated them. Two lost girls who feel considerably more alone as their fame progresses.

And can I just say... Sam...
