This really had me thinking about reality TV and how the world see celebrities. It's made me rethink the way I see actors and actresses and reality TV kids. I enjoyed getting my perception challenge and Bonnie/Chloe getting over her fear. I really liked the sibling bond with her and Benny especially. (Longer review to come) I initially picked up this book because the cover intrigued me and the story seemed like something I'd never really read about before. We're surrounded by reality television all the time, but its rare to read about a fictional depiction of it (for me, at least). As this was my first time reading a book on this subject, I was slightly nervous about whether or not I would enjoy it. Thankfully, I was not disappointed and found myself seriously immersed in the story. I really only had two problems with this book: slight insta-love and repetitiveness. While the two leads' love story starts out slow, it quickens at a somewhat unrealistic (ha, pun) pace. In addition, the novel began to become more and more repetitive towards the end. Despite these issues, I was still extremely pleased with this novel due to its story-telling and message. While "Baker's Dozen" isn't a real reality show that I could tune in to watch right now, the story Demetrios illustrates around it connects back to the way we conduct ourselves when watching actual reality television and discussing real reality stars. I don't think I'll ever look at reality entertainment the same way again. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

I'm only 20% in and it already feels like a DNF.
I even started flipping through. That's like an ultimate sin.
Realism, where art thou?
VERDICT: Do yourself a favour and pick something else. ( )
