I’m distraught. How could this happen. I have no more chapters to read... (-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩___-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩) But to give a review: it’s very good. Entertainment industry settings aren’t my favorite, but I think this one is- if not the best-then definitely close to the best that I’ve read so far. Unlike others with the same setting, the author keeps multiple things going at the same time (albeit in different phases). To me, this means there’s never a dull moment, no feeling of “oh the thing I cared about is over, now they want me to care about something else?”... I’m not sure if others feel the same, but since the author lays the groundwork for the MC’s next projects in advance, every moment is one I care about... Including the ones he didn’t get to because I ran out of chapters... !!Also notable is that it holds up well without romance. Or, I don’t know if it will ever have romance in the future, but I often find that some books without romance don’t have strongly fleshed out characters or don’t have meaningful interpersonal relationships between the MC and others. This one, while it doesn’t have incredibly strong interpersonal relationships, it’s not bad either. The characters though, are fleshed out. They feel alive. No one feels vague and all of the characters are very distinct from each other! Even characters that aren’t seen often! That is very rare.If you have time to read it, I recommend it. If you don’t, I’d recommend saving it somewhere for when you do.
