This is a pretty recent release, and I'm sure you'll agree that it looks like great fun. And after the rather heavy books we've read recently, something to make us smile and laugh will definitely be appreciated.

When Elektra is discovered by an acting agent, she imagines Oscar glory can't be far away, but instead lurches from one cringe-worthy moment to the next! Just how many times can you be rejected for the part of 'Dead Girl Number Three' without losing hope? And who knew that actors were actually supposed to be multi-lingual, play seven instruments and be trained in a variety of circus skills?

Off-stage things aren't going well either - she's fallen out with her best friend, remains firmly in the friend-zone with her crush and her parents are driving her crazy. One way or another, Elektra's life is now spent waiting for the phone to ring - waiting for callback.

Can an average girl-next-door like Elektra really make it in the world of luvvies and starlets?

Started today, it's going to be very difficult to pace myself because it's *hilarious* and exactly what I need right now!

This book is so difficult to put down. I pick it up to read a chapter before bed and end up reading ten two nights in a row and now I'm at work and super tired :/
