I read a third of this #FML
First of all, I picked this up thinking this was a piece of fiction, and the whole time I'm reading this craptastic word vomit fest, I was like, "this has to be self-published because no agent in their right mind would have picked this up." Lo and behold... it's REAL. And she's already "famous" (though I've never seen anything she's been in... I check on IMDB) so that's why it got picked up. Look, I get it. Her life sucked. Welcome to the club, honey. It's not all rainbows and unicorns. But this was just bad. On a personal note, yeah, sorry about your jerk of an ex-husband and Javier being all locked in himself (as someone who has lost a brother to suicide and has a tendency to lock myself away in myself, I just have to say... sorry, sometimes we just deal with thing in different ways--we can't all be like you and talk it out, mmmmkay?). You have definitely surrounded yourself with some worthless men. And I'm sorry for you for that. Every pet peeve I have in writing style, Gabrielle Stone seems to have. She doesn't describe anything--she just tells you. "It was so big and pretty." Like the beauty of it all is some kind of secret she wants to keep... yet she wants you to shell out money for this book and she won't tell you anything. I mean, honestly, a ghostwriter or an editor would have been so helpful here. I hate DNFing a book, I really do, and I have slogged my way through some bad ones in the past, but I just cannot finish this one. I really don't care about her path to enlightenment, and you shouldn't either.
