You know how when you really like the first book by an author that you tend to really want to like the second book, even if it is not as good as the first book?  My loyalties toDocumentaryreally want me to write a glowing review for Remake, but honestly, I just didn't think it was as good.  Now don't get me wrong; I liked it, it's just that it took soooo looooong for Erica to come clean to her fiancé Bryson, that I got a little exasperated.  I kept saying in my mind, "Come on! Enough already!"When Erica was raped last year by Jeremy, she fled from all her friends and her fiancé.  She reconciled with Kia and the twins, finally telling them what happened to her, but she was not courageous enough to tell her fiancé, Bryson.  Bryson had his world knocked out from under him when Erica did not come back to him from her trip to Thailand. She felt that Bryson would not be able to remember who she was, and that he would see her as a rape survivor and show her pity.  She couldn't handle seeing him treat her differently and so she remained estranged from him.  But her friends had different goals and played match maker with them, until they FINALLY  broke and Erica reveals the truth to him (which took WAY TOO LONG in my opinion!).The most frustrating part of reading Remake was the awful transitions!  As you are reading about Bryson and Erica making love in New Orleans, all of a sudden it is the next morning and they are eating breakfast, then with no warning, Erica is filming with Dylan back in L.A.  This happened all the time; there has GOT TO BE lines that separate the paragraphs that go to a different time or location!  This was VERY frustrating!!!I have to say I liked Documentary a little bit better than this one, as it had more drama and interesting characters, but I admit, the sex scenes were better in this one. There was Profanity (bitch, f-word, etc)  very descriptive sex, drinking and some drug references.
