"My introduction to Lars von Trier, a breath of stale, musky air when I found it in 1990. A circular story in a sodden netherworld. Before his naturalism period, Lars explores studio trickery, and, as always, with guilt and repression bubbling under the surface."

"If you’re worried that you’re crazy and want to feel sane, watch this riveting documentary about artist R. Crumb and his relatives. His family defines dysfunctional. He alone found a way to channel the dysfunctionality into creativity as a unique form of visual art."

Reading through the pages of a book that disappears and reappears at will, that matches Laura's life in so many ways, makes her yearn for the unattainable. Can love be found between the pages of a book?

I really liked the first one but this one...well I liked it but I found myself putting it down a lot and finding other things to do beside finish this book.

I don't think I'm in a hurry to read the next one.

"I found this in winter 2009 in Chicago while riding the train to work at 6 a.m. to open a cafe, depressed. I didn't have money to buy recording gear. It's so undeniably real and unafraid to be sincere. To me, that is powerful songwriting."

It's a really good story my only grievance is all the little errors I found. Wrong character names. A semi major plot point, the song they keep talking about is incorrectly called Would You Rather instead of Rather be with You. Things like that.

"Outside of the previously mentioned shows, Swift is a huge fan of Game of Thrones. But this isn’t new news to longtime Swifties. Swift previously revealed that she was so obsessed with the popular fantasy show that it found its way into her music."

It isn't often that a debut novel will get 5/5 stars from me, but when it does, I know I've found a new favorite author. My #bookreview of this book is on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2020/03/13/dialing-into-trouble/

I found it hard to get past the bitchiness of Bridget for a while. And I'd like to point out that this book can be a bit triggering for people suffering from eating disorders or struggling with self-esteem issues etc in some bits.
