The second book in Beth Killian's THE 310 series, EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, will live up to the expectations of readers who loved book number one! Eva is back in this fun new book, and her life is still as entertainingly and unrealistically dramatic as a made-for-TV movie. Eva is still trying to figure out her family (this time she's finding out more about her father), for one thing. For another, she's got boy trouble, just like any teenage girl!

She thought she'd be happy with Danny, but things just aren't working out like Eva would have hoped. Why? Jeff, her best friend from high school, has shown up unexpectedly on Eva's doorstep. He's got some big plans that Eva does not want to be part of. He's got an engagement ring for Eva, and can't seem to understand why she keeps saying no! As is to be expected, this puts some stress on her relationship with Danny.

If that was not enough, Eva and her roommates, Coelle and Jacinda, are having some problems as well. The three of them were just starting to actually be friends--but life in Hollywood is always dramatic, and this time the drama is invading their almost-harmonious home.

Readers of LIFE AS A POSER will love this novel. It's highly recommended to have read LIFE AS A POSER before picking up EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, its equally entertaining and fun sequel. The fabulous characters readers met in the first book in THE 310 series are back, and the drama is just as good as before! Beth Killian has again created a fantastic story about life in Hollywood that readers won't be able to put down!… (lisätietoja)

In this third installment in Beth Killian's THE 310 series, life is as full of drama as ever for Eva and her friends and family in Los Angeles. Eva's life is overwhelming in all aspects. In her family, she's got her crazy mother to deal with as well as a newfound brother, Thomas. Of course, her life wouldn't be complete without boy, career, and friend drama as well. After all, this is Hollywood!

There's some new drama as well as continuations of the old in BOY TROUBLE. Jacinda's sister is in town, for one thing--and she's getting married. Jacinda may be trying to fit in a romance of her own, too...With Eva's new brother, Thomas! Life in the 310 is as crazy as ever.

BOY TROUBLE might be even more fun and fabulous than books one and two in the series! Highly entertaining and well-written, this latest in the drama-filled series certainly does not disappoint. Full of the wonderful characters readers know and love, as well as some new ones, this funny, fantastic novel will have readers flipping pages as quickly as their fingers will allow.… (lisätietoja)

Some things have happened to Eva Cordes back in her high school that she doesn't want to deal with for the rest of the year. Eva's solution? Graduate a semester early and start a new life in Hollywood with her aunt, Laurel, an agent who represents some of the biggest teen stars. Eva is going to be a star! An added bonus? She might get to find out more about her mother, a model who dumped Eva with her grandparents as a small child.

Life in Hollywood isn't quite as fabulous as Eva thought it would be, though. Sure, she's got her own credit card and a chance to become a star, but she's also rooming with a couple of other teen starlets who could turn out to be her friends--or, more likely, as it would seem at first, enemies. Her has-been mother won't even tell people she is a mother. Eva is being told who she can and cannot date because of their connections in Hollywood. Her aunt is keeping secrets from Eva. What did she expect, though? This is Hollywood, and Eva's life is fit for the tabloids already.

LIFE AS A POSER, the first book in THE 310 series, is a fun page-turner with sometimes outrageous and always interesting characters that readers looking for a way to pass a rainy Saturday won't want to miss. It's an entertaining and fairly quick read, as well as a fun behind-the-scenes look at Hollywood! I've read quite a few books lately that are backstage passes to the lives of celebrities, and this is one of the better ones. Perhaps because Eva goes so quickly from being a normal high school student to Hollywood; perhaps because Beth Killian is just a great writer! Either way, readers won't want to miss the next book in THE 310 series, EVERYTHING SHE WANTS.… (lisätietoja)
