AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Jess is off the set of Stuck in the ‘90s, reunited with Sara and Charli, and has finally turned 18yo – so she can’t be forced back to the set. But Kipps is still months away from his eighteenth birthday. When they’re caught outside Charli’s house, Kipps is forced back to the set to fulfill his contract, and Jess has to figure out how to get him back.
While I was disappointed in Jess and Kipps for getting caught so easily over a scene that was unnecessary, the rest of the book was intense – I hung on every word. Jess is a little petty and a little paranoid, but it felt genuine with her upturned world. Shattered illusions doesn’t mean that Jess now knows what to do and how to move forward; she still fights for her freedom and for the freedom of others bound to Like-Life Productions.
Jess is white, Kipps is implied-white, and Sara is half Mexican. The mature content rating is for alcohol, mentions of drugs and groping, innuendo, illegal activity, nudity, and sex. The violence rating is for taser use and attempted murder.
