They're Not Your Friends

Fiction by Irene Zutell.

This book should have been a fun read; it's basically about celebrity gossip writers. It had some fun elements and funny bits, but I had some trouble enjoying it.

The main characters are Lottie, a underpaid gossip-writing genius; Lem, a used-to-be-great gossip writer on his way out of a job; and Mike, an overpaid, neurotic guy who couldn't write his way out of a gossip paper bag. They were all well-written and realistic characters, but I couldn't properly like them, and I wasn't sure who to root for. I think the story got to heavy for the light reading it was supposed to be.

I'm not sure what rating to give this one.
