I loved that this as a collection of stories from a "faded" screenwriter, it had that element that I was looking for from a Hollywood memoir. I was hooked from the first page and enjoyed the way everything was written. Lou Mathews has a strong writing style and am excited for more.

i found the book pretty and very well written. sometimes i was a bit confused by the bouncing timelines but in general it was nice. 4 stars. tysm for the arc.

After reading about this book, I was really excited to dive into it - but unfortunately it was not quite what I expected and it didn't really catch me at any point. Maybe I simply knew too little about what it was about so it just went over my head. I am sure that people who know much more about the film industry enjoy this read much more than I was able to. This is a classic case of "it's not you, it's me".

this was a pretty good read! it pulled at different emotions as I was reading, and even though i couldn't be more different from the character, I still was able to feel emotions for them. I liked the way this book was written!!

Thank you to NetGalley, to the author, and to the publisher for this complimentary ARC in exchange for my honest review!!!
