I thought this book was really good! I finished it in about four days. It was a really good moving story that reminded me of the #metoo movement and Harvey Weinstein. I loved how much the main character loved her job and it inspired me to start blogging again. Plus the bond between her and the other characters especially Marius was adorable. I also liked how she pointed out the nuances in acting while Black and how that adds another element. I also liked how even though she loved her body she was still insecure sometimes, I think that was really relatable as someone who doesn’t have the typical “bikini body” myself.
