Secrets of My Hollywood Life

review 1: PARTIAL SPOILERVery disappointing. Its such a shame because I remember loving these books in middle school and devouring each one. Last month I checked to see if the series had any new installments just out of curiosity, and since this was the concluding book I decided to finish out the series I had enjoyed so much. Maybe my reading taste has matured since I first picked up these books, or I'm just too old for them now but I started to realize very quickly how poorly it is written. I feel like the author just threw this together just to end the series and did not put absolutely any amount of effort or creativity in it; this book seemed like a rough draft. The dialogues were ridiculous throughout the whole book, the "dream sequence" was laughable, and the script excerpts fr... moreom "Family Affair" and "Small Fries" were unbelievable. I was not happy with this final installment, however, since I have not read any Calonita books since the time I put down the 5th SOMHL book, I am interested in reading some more sequels to other books of hers I liked to see if I am this let down with her other work.
review 2: So, I have finally read the conclusion of the Secrets Of My hollywood Life series. I'd give this novel a 3.5 if that were possible, but I rounded up to 4.0 even, since we can't use halves. I would recommend this to the readers of the rest of the series, seeing that it provides closure.SUMMERY (NO SPOILERS)So, Kaitlyn Burke is back in her final debut. She's got the life she's always dreamed of, producers knocking down her door, the best boyfriend in the world, and she's a Paparazzi Princess once again, but in a good way. So, what does the Starlet have to complain about NOW?!?! Well, her mother for one thing. Meg Burke just can't let her daughter make her own choices, and it's driving Kaitlyn up the wall. After Nadine makes a shocking announcement on Kaitlyn's eighteenth birthday, Hollywood's princess is about to snap. And she does, which ends in a terrifying chase by the paparazzi, and a traumatic car crash...COVER So, overall, I like the cover of this book. It shows Kaitlyn's "Wizard Of Oz" bag, which played the largest role in literature's Handbag History. Okay, even if I did make that up, it's sorta true. I don't wanna give anything away, so I'm gonna shush now...CHARACTERS Okay, so Kaitlyn annoys me a bit, I'll admit it. She does seem a bit whiny. I can see her problems, but why doesn't she ever look to the good things about her life? More than 85% of girls would kill to be in her place! Also, she never takes action, and lets her (even more annoying) Mother control EVERYTHING. And I mean EVERYTHING. Basically, the only character from the books that I still have a soft spot for is Austin. He's always there for Kaitlyn (Unless you count the alternate dimension-him. Oops! I've already said too much...), and he's an all around sweet, loyal guy. PLOT (CONTAINS SOME SMALL-ISH SPOILERS!) I'm still not sure what I think about the plot... At first, I thought the whole alternate dimension thing was sorta cheesy. But I eventually came around, even if Kaitlyn's choices there made me want to pull my hair out...ENDING (MINOR SPOILERS) I liked the ending. It provided much-needed closure for me, while still giving me time to breathe. I'm also happy that Austin and Kaitlyn made it through everything all right. But, I'm still wondering what ever happened to the alternate dimension peoples... Hmm... less

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!! There's No Place Like Home, the last book of the series, is a book about life evaluation in Hollywood. Kaitlin Burke, a star with everything she could ever want, feels like her life is to much. Her mother only cares about work, the paparazzi are rude and impossible, and she's overbooked with having to star in two films and a TV show. When she gets in a car crash she wakes up in a different place or dimension. She's actually not a movie star, she doesn't have a boyfriend, her mom is actually nice, and she doesn't have to deal with paparazzi anymore. Yay, right? Wrong. During the journey of the book, Kaitlin realizes that her life was actually great, she just needed to fix a few things. When she finally wakes up, (who knew, she was just in a coma!), she does a few things, and bam, back to life the way she always wanted it. I really enjoyed this book and series because it gives you a peek into Hollywood and is fun to read. I would recommend this book to Hollywood lovers.

i love the ending,, but I don't the story...it just doesnt makes sense....how kaitlin to be on that world in the first place and she totally realized it's not her world but whining about it...I love Ms. Calonita writing style,so much...normally I really hated it if a book with first person character talk too much about clothes, but Ms. Calonita make it that part good and not awkward at all...
