Franny didn't write this?! No wonder its better than SVC!
Though it still sounds really, really dumb. I just cannot picture Lila on a reality show. Everything else sounds relatively plausible, considering our characters/pairings...but this just rings totally false to me. Oh, well. At least she's brunette again? And has father named George? LOL.
She's the only one listed on book 1, but Cara Lockwood is listed as an additional writer on book 2. Neither reads as horrifically bad as SVC though I've never read any of Franny's other works so I don't know if it rings true to her voice in those. I'm just grateful the excessive use of "like" was taken out back and shot.
I can get Lila's reasoning (wanting to be the center of attention *somewhere*) behind the show, but I can't think of any Lila incarnation anywhere who would be on board for a reality show like this. Just... no. Lila is classy and everyone knows the villain of the show is rarely classy. :P
Finished the second one. Lila moment to start us off!
You're right - reality shows are taped in advance, so Lila's devastating announcement really doesn't make any sense, unless they're only in the taping phase and not the on-air phase.
But this *is* Franny we're talking about, and we both know she's an idiot, so.
And when did Jess turn into Liz? God, is Todd really worth it?! This is my skeptical face.
As for Liz - good God, she's turned into a total dipstick, especially if she remembers the rape-that-wasn't with rosy hindsight. Because WAT.
Good grief, this sounds like such a freaking trainwreck. However, the knowledge that Francine didn't write it herself and thus, it's probably readable, means that there is a chance I will purchase the whole story in book form in October *SHAME*
Jessica has a kid? Does she constantly bemoan her stretch marks/loss of her perfect size six figure, or did her perfect Wakefield body immediately snap back into shape?
So sick of 'fake rape' storylines and it's really disturbing that they seem to brush off the events in 'Dear Sister'. It's also sad to see that Elizabeth is kind of fading away. She was always so driven and teenaged me found that inspiring. Maybe she discovers herself and runs off with Lila.
I will forever ship Elizabeth/Lila and Enid/Jessica. No one can stop me.
Dying at 'Laura Christer' lolololol that's so bad it's awesome.
Is the Robin making the accusation Robin Wilson from SVH?
Bruce is such a dumbass but I'm all for him doing things that fuck up his life.
Agreed so hard that Lila would never, ever lower herself to being on a reality show. She'd want a show about her but it would be high-quality documentary about her awesomeness.
