Review: Secrets of My Hollywood Life (Secrets of My Hollywood Life #1) by Jen Calonita

SUMMARY FROM GOODREADS.COM:

Juicy Hollywood secrets are revealed throughout this novel about a young star, Kaitlin Burke, who goes undercover to high school. Could it be that high school is just as harsh as Hollywood?

MY TAKE:

Even though the plot is different, every now and then, while I was reading this, I kept thinking about Maria Slater from Sweet Valley.

Kaitlin is a Hollywood starlet who stars in a popular soap opera. As it happens in a lot of these kinds of books, Kaitlin wants to get away from the pressures of Hollywood and enrols in a normal high school.

It's cliche, in parts, but what makes this book extra special are the Hollywood secrets that pepper the book. You can easily imagine that this is a real Hollywood actress telling her story.

THE GOOD:

1. It's a rollicking good read.
2. Hollywood teenager-style.
3. Great supporting characters.

THE BAD:

1. It's cliche sometimes.

FAVORITE QUOTE/S:

HOLLYWOOD SECRET NUMBER TWELVE: A star’s home is never as fabulous as it appears in the pages of a magazine.

READ IT IF:

1. You dream of making it big in Hollywood.
2. You are fascinated with Hollywood celebrities.
3. You're looking for a light read.
