I thought this book just flew by and I really liked all of the characters and their faults which are detailed quite thoroughly.

Sounds like good read. I was born in Brooklyn and remember going to the Prospect Park Zoo. I love when stories take place somewhere I have been.
Sounds like it was a great book. And i love the cover too. I’m going to add it to my wishlist. thanks for the review
I like easy reading chick lit this time of year. Thanks for the info.
HI Mary – Thank you for your kind words. Happy to tell you more about fake celebs in fiction/real celebs in fiction! I love to have fictional characters interacting with real ones – I feel it helps place them in a believable context. An old acting teacher used to say, “Acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances” and you could say something similar about fiction.

It sounds like things could get really interesting and busy!
I really like the cover too!
