A review by megancmahon
Miss del Río by Bárbara Mujica

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

Just didn't grip me. The characters felt wooden and I really didn't like any of them - Mara was extremely judgmental, Lola was annoying. All of them felt one-dimensional. It's really a shame, because the history of Mexican film stars and Old Hollywood in general is FASCINATING to me. I would have loved to see a deeper portrait of the Mexican Revolution and Old Hollywood, but I couldn't stick with it.
