For a book about movies there sure was not a lot about movies

Borrrrrinnnnnnngggggg. Also ever chapter felt like the ending to a wattpad fic imo

A slow burn for sure. I feel like maybe if I listened on audiobook I'd enjoy more but as much as I love Silvia, this one just didn't do it for it me.

To truly rate and comprehend this, I think I would need to be in an academic setting to discuss. Maybe I'll reread when I'm older and wiser

2.5 rounded up. This was sooooo good until about the 3/4 mark then it tanked so fast. The ending was absolute trash imo

Would've been a 4 star if there was no 3rd act breakup smh

More like 2.5 rounded up.
Can't believe everyone was raving about this, it's nothing special.

I'd say this was more of a 3.75 but I'll round up. Very twisty turny but also I hate everyone in it (but like in a still readable way)

Way too much going on all at once, would've been better if there was actually a solid main plotline to follow but I couldn't tell who I should actually care about - bear or Barbara

The beginning kinda dragged and by god was the ending a flop.

Maybe if millennials (specifically 90s era millennials) didn't write this and insert 8 trillion bits of pop culture references or if they had a better editor, I would've enjoyed this. The analysis on the dolls was quite mid too but the chapter on Williamsburg + the founder slayed the house down

It did not fall flat! What a great book I'd never heard of to get me out of a slump!!

I was super hyped for this but it really didn't live up to my expectations. The writing was blah, summer sucked for at least 3/4 of the book and Aiden has the vibe of a bowl of cream of wheat. The only kinda okay character on the side was Kian. And nothing was really resolved?? Like so glad summer's dad has sooo much money and can just use that to get through things?

Who's rating this 4 or 5 stars???? This is genuinely one of the most awful books I've listened to. I was so close to DNFing (which is very rare for me) but it's so short I suffered. Everything about this was annoying.

Way too much going on here but overall the Boone as okay

I LOVED the first book but wtf was this. I HATED Hannah get her out of here

I said I should just quit my career path to become an author so someone can write older adults correctly because apparently nobody can

The description is so misleading and I probably wouldn't have read this if the description was accurate.

Like a meld of Fall of the House of Usher and Verity. Really great, took too long to get where it needed to and the ending was all a little much for me but still worth the read

Fun, fast paced, a great ode to the genera

Everything about this annoyed me

I feel like this would've slayed so hard if I finished the heros of Olympus series and read this right after

Had to add a star for no 3rd act breakup but I genuinely hated both of them — hurts my feelings bc I love Tessa :(

All that for maybe like 7% of the book to be good? Brutal.

I wanted to like this so bad and it was just so blah so disappointed
