A Prep School Girl with a Hollywood Dream
Becca Harrington is a reject. After being rebuffed by every college on
her list, she needs a fresh start, so she packs up everything and moves
to LA, giving herself one year to land an acting gig or kill herself
trying.
Unfortunately, not everything turns out as planned, and after a few
grueling months, LA is looking like the worst idea ever. As hard as she
tries, Becca can't land an agent, she's running out of cash, and her mom
is hounding her to apply to more schools. In an act of desperation,
Becca and her friend Marisol start posting short videos online-with the
help of their adorable filmmaker neighbor, Raj-and the videos catch the
attention of a TV producer. Could this be it? Her big break? Or will she
have to move back home with nothing but some bad head shots and a
monstrous credit-card bill?
Becca may not get the Hollywood ending she was hoping for, but perhaps
she'll learn there's more than one way to achieve her dream.
Readers will love every page of this funny, romantic, aspirational, and
ultimately triumphant novel about a girl who just wants to make it on
her own.
