Have I read this before?, September 28, 2010
This review is from: I Heart Hollywood (Paperback)
I expected a little more from this book....it sounds promising storyline about a hardworking girl meeting a fab actor - the interview which could set up her career, and then it all going a little awry. But I think I have read this story before by other authors, so it seemed a little tired and expected. The twist of the story with the actor was easy for me to see, and I think I would have preferred the story without the twist! It would have made better reading, possibly more interesting to see how the character resolved the dilemma of 2 men. Instead, the ending was the easy way out.
Will try another book by this author and see if its got a bit more to offer.

Angela, does it again!!!, December 27, 2011
I don't know how Angela C. manages to get into so much trouble but I do love being a part of it!!! This book was acutally as good if not better than I heart NY. I love the fact I feel like I'm right there next to her as she she takes on Hollywood. This is by far a great read be sure to pick it up.

I Heart This Series, October 1, 2011
This review is from: I Heart Hollywood (Paperback)
I Heart Hollywood is the second book in the I Heart series by Lindsey Kelk. Angela Clark is back and she's still living in the United States, writing for a hip magazine, and debating whether to move in with her sexy new boyfriend. Her latest work assignment is interviewing fellow Brit and actor James Jacobs...in Hollywood. All is fun and glamorous until paparazzi snaps compromising photos of Angela and James Jacobs. The gossip spreads and threatens her job, reputation and relationship.
I really liked Angela's independent attitude and guts in the first book, I Heart New York. But she loses this burst of "I Am Woman" in this book. She seems helpless and clueless. I enjoyed reading more about her best friend Jenny, who is healing from heartbreak and discovering a potential new career. Hopefully Angela just had a temporary mental setback and will be back to normal. As Jenny says, "You're my best friend. You do stupid stuff. I sort it out. This is our thing, it's the thing that we do."
Lindsey Kelk's pop culture and smooth writing style make for easy, light reading. I love when a book takes me to different places in the world like New York, London, Hollywood, Vegas, and Paris. It's fun to read Angela's perception of the different cities. It's safe to say I am sticking with this series and can't wait to read the next two.
