From School Library Journal:
Grade 10 Up–This story is told in alternating narratives by 17-year-old Jasmine Green and Jess, the main character in the diary/screenplay that Jasmine has written. Jess's descriptions of the characters and events make for quite a scandalous depiction of Jasmine's real life. Unfortunately, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep the altered and real-life characters straight. The story begins with the death of Jasmine's ex-boyfriend from a drug and alcohol overdose. After his parents find a copy of Jasmine's script, they sell the option to Jasmine's father, thinking their dead son is the actual author. Jasmine's father, a Hollywood producer, purchases the production rights without reading the text, so he has no idea that it contains every scandal his family has survived over the last year. Jasmine tries desperately to make things right only to make matters worse before her problems are resolved. The ending is wrapped up rather quickly and the plot itself is reminiscent of Mel Gilden's Beverly Hills 90210 (HarperCollins). Drug and alcohol use and teen sex are implied. Fans of Margolis's Fix (S & S, 2006) are the most likely audience for this Hollywood tale.–G. Alyssa Parkinson, Highland Township Library, MI
