The characters are beautiful and brilliant and so diverse that I felt kind of proud while reading this. You get to see a lot of pitfalls of being famous (mostly being taken advantage of, the paparazzi and media, extreme fans, etc.) and while I absolutely felt sorry for this girl who has been thrust on the world’s stage at such a young age, some of the decisions she makes are just so irritating!! And I get it, that’s totally her character, and she’s young and confused, but, I mean, I kind if just wanted to talk some sense into her (or throttle her) in some scenes. OK, so we when we begin we meet Emmy (our protagonist) who is the drummer in a band that has hit it pretty big.
(Because there are crossover characters and I feel like I should have connected with the protagonist more, but maybe, and I mean MAYBE, I just had too. And… as much as I try not to compare books, it was really hard not to. This story is set in the same world as Queens of Geek, Jen Wilde’s debut contemporary novel. Will the inevitable fallout turn her into a clickbait scandal (again)? Or will she find the strength to stand on her own? She knows hooking up with a band member is exactly the kind of trouble she should be avoiding, and yet Emmy and Alfie Just. Luckily, Emmy has her friends and bandmates, including the super-swoonworthy Alfie, to help her pick up the pieces of her life.
When a night of partying lands Emmy in the hospital, she’s branded the latest tabloid train wreck. But there’s nothing the paparazzi love more than watching a celebrity crash and burn.
