This was an okay read. Nothing necessarily exciting, but also nothing so bad that made me pause. I will give it to TJR, her writing style is simple and digestible, I found myself turning the page even when I was questioning some plot choices made. I did feel like this was both too long for the story told and not long enough for the story it wanted to tell. I didn't care for the whole Monique story and reading those scenes just felt so out of place for me. I wanted to hear more about Evelyn and old Hollywood, instead whatever scenes we did get were more surface level stuff. I can admit when a book is not for me and this book just wasn't for me. I was hoping this would have some substance and I'm sorry but that ending was kind of lame.
