I loved this book! I've been a fan of elle mcnicoll for ages and her newest novel certainly didnt disappoint! i got an early copy from the launch at the edinburgh book festival, and absolutely devoured it! I found elle's recent work on fame in wish you were her very interesting, and I loved how role model dove deeper into the impact of fame on childrenand teenagers. I also loved the storyline about toxic friendship and the criticism those in the limelight, especially women, get for doing literally anything! I loved the characters, especially ariel her older sister, fizz. I really enjoyed it!
