This was a fun, charming little story. The characters discover new things about themselves, as they analyze past thoughts, actions, and feelings. New love, and rekindled friendships wrap it up, leaving the reader satisfied with a truly happy ending.

This was such a fun read! Fame Adjacent follows Holly Danner, the only cast member of a 90s kids show not to become famous later on. Left out of a reunion special, Holly has become obsessed with her cast mates to the point of landing in an internet addiction facility, where she meets Thom and convinces him to take her to the reunion show. It took me a little while to get into Holly's voice, but once I did I couldn't stop reading. She and Thom get in to some wacky situations, but they are both so self-deprecating and charming that it's funny rather than cringe-worthy. Thom particularly was a great character, and I enjoyed the way his relationship with Holly evolved. More than just a romantic comedy, the book really nicely grapples with fame, childhood friends, and feeling that life has left you behind while everyone else is a success.
