I thought I would LOVE this book because I had been through the same things as this girl but it went on and on for me and I couldn't get through it. Could have been better.

I absolutely loved this book! Elizabeth Miller graduated summa cum laude from Georgetown University with a degree in economics and political science. Unable to find a job in Washington, DC, she ends up in Hollywood as a second assistant at the Agency, an agency for actors and movie stars.

To say she experiences culture shock is an understatement! She starts out hating LA, the men in LA, her job, and her coworkers. Luke, the guy she has a crush on, has a sexy French girlfriend.

To find out how she manages to overcome these obstacles, read the book.

I liked this better than either Nannie Diaries or Devil Wears Prada which it is usually compared to.

I enjoyed this book a lot. It's a quick read and an interesting fictional look at the lives of Hollywood publicists.
