How to Fake It in Hollywood

Average rating3.7
This was good, particularly in its rejection of the “your love cured me trope” in which beautiful young, women save surly, hurting men from themselves. However, this is the second age-gap romance I read in as many days, and it shames me to admit, I don't really enjoy them. Particularly, because I rarely, if ever see the reverse in romance and most of the age-gap romances I've observed in real life are rife with unsavoury power dynamics. But, I digress, on its own, this book was a swoony, enjoyable romance.
DNF @ 75%, the fact that I didn't pick this book back up for MONTHS shows you. The writing is fantastic. I cannot stand Grey, she's whiny and unwilling to understand for the man she loves. I love Ethan, yes he's been through shit but he has a major character arc. Grey? Not so much.
I feel like I need to curate a list of these Hollywood romances that I just gobble up.
Thank goodness this man got sober.
