This book is intended for "young adults" but I've found that despite the fact that I didn't really read "young adult" books when I was younger, I actually really like Lia Blocks books. I don't find them boring or slow. I do tend to read them in one night but I still enjoy them.

Violet and claire are two girls on complete different ends of the personality spectrum, but they come together to create a dynomite pair.But when Violets screenplay writing career blossums with a boom, Clair gets left behind.. Very real and very wonderful.

Block sets herself new challanges and meets them with consummate grace in this new novel. Her writing is as lush and luminous as hip and wise and ever.....

Another winner by Block. Two girls, one a dark movie afficionado with voracious ambition, the other a golden faery with a broken poetic heart, lose and reclaim each other in LA, where the poisonous air smells like flowers.

As a fan of Block's poetic and lyrical writing style, I enjoyed this book which explores the dynamics of ambition, misunderstanding and the impermeable bond of friendship.
