jane Roberts Continues Her Reality Television Show Adventures In This Second Of Three Planned Books In The L.a. Candy Series. This Story Concentrates On Jane's Relationshipswith Friends, Nonfriends, And Boyfriends. She Can't Figure Out How The Local Gossip Magazine Is Supplied With Rumors About Her. She Stays In An Unhealthy Relationship With Bad Boy Jesse, Who Drinks And Is Abusive. She's Too Naive, Or Unaware, That New Friend Madison Is The Source Of The Rumors About Her. In The End, Jane Learns Who Her True Best Friend Is, But She Is Still Ambivalent About Her Dating Judgment . . . As Well She Should Be. She Is Portrayed As Shallow, Trusts A New Friend Over One She's Known For Most Of Her Life, And Can't See What's Right In Front Of Her. She And Most Of The Characters Project Superficial Values, Such As Hooking Up After Meeting Someone Once And Underage Drinking. Most Of The Characters Are Not Sympatheticthey Throw Over Friends As If They Were Flapjacks Yet Can't Understand Why They're Not Liked. Suspicion Of Others, Whether About Their Professional Or Personal Life, Seems To Be An Overriding Factor. Trite Characters In Trite Plots, No Matter How Up To Date They Are With Their Texting And Omgs, Are Still Unoriginal And Not Worth Our Caring. All This Could Be Overlooked If The Book Were Better Written. Despite This, It Will Be Sure To Be Popular With Similar Reality Show Watchers, Fans Of Ex-hills Star Conrad, And Readers Who Extol Celebrity Even If Undeserved. Reviewer: Jane Van Wiemokly
