i truly did not like this book -- which is why i finished it - somewhere i thought the story would have some redeeming qualities but for me it did not. The concept intrigued me but honestly could not get into the stories. Too many characters to follow -- not just the five girls - the niece, the two associated with the show, Yvette...in addition i found the characters without any depth and totally unlikeable. They all do whatever it takes to stay on TV - is that realistic? maybe so . I don't watch reality tv. You should read some of the more likable reviews to see if this book is for you.
