How to be a Movie Star

Maria Luiza

This book is so heartwarming. How to Be a Normal Person is one of my favorite books of all time and I'm so happy this one gets to be together with it. All the characters are so nice and everything develops at such a good pace. I love the sense of humor and how the characters treat each other. I wish I could live inside this book.

I liked Josiah. It was a very, very short story about how he wanted to be a movie star. Unfortunately, that was it. I was incredibly disappointed by how short it was and how much I didn't get to see of our main character. Not a glimpse of his past or future, just a few scenes. 

I adore Tj Klune's writing but I'm a little sad there wasn't more to this. It was far too short. But, not bad.
