Truthfully, I didn't think this book was going to affect me quite the way it did. I had thought, being about Hollywood, it would be one of those light, frivolous books, but it wasn't. And I'm so happy it wasn't. This book slayed me. It sucked me right in with its vivid characters and intriguing plot line and it never released me until the very end. I was hooked and I read it all through in one marathon sit-down - I lost sleep over this book! The things Amanda and Ryan had to endure to get to where they needed to be were tough and heartbreaking, but ultimately hopeful. They had to endure them to become the people they were meant to be and those people turned out far more pleasing than they started out - which was a hard feat considering they were so good, in their own ways, at the beginning. I loved watching their emotional growth and how they handled everything life threw at them. Sometimes, I just wanted to grab them by the shoulders to shake them and scream, "What are you DOING?" but other times, I was just a puddle of goo because they were breaking my heart with the things they had to do to ensure their separate personal growths. But the end justified the means, so I am one happy reader. I absolutely loved this book!
