Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press\/St. Martin’s Griffin for an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think it is now just a fact I will love anything I read by Erin Hahn, regardless of the book content. This happened to be a book that was everything I loved in a novel (teen actors grown up, home renovation, romcom, dual POV, etc.), and Erin just writes in a way that is addicting. For her first adult novel she came out swinging, because I couldn’t put this book down. It is funny and the friends-to-lovers kind of story that makes my heart sing. The characters actually struggle with their identities and their relationships, grow as people both individually & in their interactions with others, and take responsibility for their actions. The characters are all flawed, but the “villain” clearly the villain due to terrible behavior and not just as a plot device, and it makes it believable. There are boundaries and respect between all of the characters (save the villain-esq characters) and it makes this book real, to the point I am sad I cannot actually watch the reality show being filmed in this book. End result- I can’t wait to read her next book, whatever that book might be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
