I loved this story. For the most part the characters are fantastic and the plot was super engaging. I was pretty hooked. It's a great exploration of the exploitation of music artists and the effects of the industry on people.
The only places it fell short for me were sometimes it felt a little too 'on the nose'. While overall the story and characters were great, some clearly didn't have the same depth as others, and sometimes the writing styles owed themselves to over explaining.
Overall, however, ive immensely enjoyed this book. I think I'm just being critical 😬
