Ever since reading All Things Cease to Appear I've wanted to read more Brundage. This one is completely different yet just as good.
Set in Hollywood a man who's script has been denied by a famous producer, is looking for ways to make her change her mind. That's just the start, which leads to a whirlwind of actions, just like in a movie. A hard boiled thriller on the one hand but also a very thoughtful novel about war veterans. Highly recommended!

Liz_M Sounds like a variation of the plot for the movie “The Player“. 4w
Cathythoughts Great review ! I really enjoyed it too. I hope she‘ll have a new book out soon 🤞🏻 4w
BarbaraBB @Liz_M I don‘t know that movie. I have to look it up! 3w

BarbaraBB @Cathythoughts That would be great. I do have another one by her that I haven‘t read yet. Did you? 3w
Cathythoughts I did read The Vanishing Point. I thought it was excellent. Although very hard to read , in terms of addiction and she really dosnt hold back. But it‘s very good. 3w
Chelsea.Poole I really enjoyed ATCtA…We‘re on the same wavelength—I just finished a Brundage I‘ve been sitting on for years (review pending!) 3w
BarbaraBB @Cathythoughts @Chelsea.Poole That‘s so good to know! And what a coincidence you just read it Chelsea! 3w
Megabooks How have I not read this??? I need to!!! 2w

#WeeklyForecast 48/24

I remember @Cathythoughts writing about the tagged book so when I found a copy in a free library I had to pick it up of course. I am going to read it after finishing Yr Dead from the #ToB25 longlist.
I want to read so many of the longlisted books and have a couple of them on my shelves. I‘ll read one each week. Except for this week lol because I also want to read Colored Television!

Ruthiella I love Free Little Library finds like that! It‘s magical somehow. 4w
Bookwormjillk Yay! Love free libraries. 4w
squirrelbrain How are you finding Yr Dead? 4w

BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain It‘s short and weird. It‘s a typical #ToB book and I like it but it won‘t be a favorite. Did you order it? 4w
sarahbarnes So fun that you have some of the long list on your shelves! There are so many I want to read, too. We will see how many I can get to! 4w
Cathythoughts Oh I think I love her writing.. she is quite dark and sometimes hard to read , but brilliant. I‘m waiting for a new one to come out. I look forward to your thoughts 👍🏻❤️ 4w
BarbaraBB @Cathythoughts I have meant to read her other books ever since I read and loved the tagged book and am super glad I stumbled upon this one! 4w
BarbaraBB @sarahbarnes Way too many 😀. I am so excited about the list that I forget to actually read 😂 4w
squirrelbrain I‘m just the same @BarbaraBB @sarahbarnes - I spend far too long making exciting spreadsheets for lists that I forget to actually read the books. 🤪 I just finished Real Americans though. 4w
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain That doesn‘t surprise me at all 😉. Is Real Americans good? 4w
sarahbarnes Yes @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB I‘m doing the same thing! 😆 4w

And ran home. And the king and queen gave her a million hugs and kisses and everybody was happy again. The end.
Thank you. Good-bye. I‘ll sit down now.

Tough read, however the author did such an amazing job of writing from the child's perspective!
