This book I only picked up because it talked about bringing nostalgia to people who lived through the late 90s and early 2000s. I genuinely really liked this book and found that it reminded me of stars like Christina Aguilera (Gwen) and Brittany Spears or Lindsey Lohan (Amber). This book definitely brought up interesting social commentary on what female stars were put through in terms of you had to either be sexy or be virginal but also the sexualizing of females we still see today. I remember that many stars if they showed up wearing a scandalous outfit they would be called a slut but if they covered up they wouldn't get the same freedom in the future. Some of the characters like Savannah reminded me of the transition a lot of people went through when they no longer wanted to be in Disney channels demographic anymore and instead wanted to make more grown up music.
