A good quick read for me but kind of a lack luster thriller.

So far the best in the series for me when it comes to world building and getting to know the society and connecting everything. I truly love the interconnectedness.

I really wanted to give this a shot but it was becoming just so difficult to push forward.
The timeline is so inconsistent and the topic seems everchanging.

At some points it just felt like he was just trying to use buzzwords to make things seem more interesting but everything was so hard to follow, and some details just seemed irrelevant and repetitive.

I think I agree with someone else on their review how it seemed that Elliot Page wrote this because he felt he had to but not that he really wanted to or was prepared to.

Paris: The Memoir by Paris Hilton

4.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Well written memoir and I honestly felt at some points like Paris was just having a conversation with me. I am not writing this review as a rating of her story but about my own feelings of the writing and how I traversed her book. It is powerful and I think it sheds light on some very important topics. I can relate to the stories involving the troubled teen industry as I have met multiple people who went through this and even watched their “home videos” of the “trek” that they force these children to do. It’s abhorrent.

***UPDATE***

Paris Hilton noticed me on booktok from this review

I enjoyed the story but I feel like this book could’ve used some more… substance? I’m not sure, I’m no writer but I felt like this needed something.
