Valeria Joseph is a young actress on a soap opera, Charmed Lives. She has been linked with her costar Lance but he dumped her for another fellow costar Hailey. So Valeria has been down on herself because this has been posted all over social media. So another fellow costar Cecily tried to see her up on a date with an up and coming singer Dex, who is friends with her boyfriend Andrew. After being seen in public with Dex things seem to be looking up for Valeria but that is short lived when Dex is seen with another singer Isla. However much to Valeria’s surprise her ex boyfriend Davis is at a college close to where she is living and close to set. They run into each other and start talking again. Could this be the start or a new relationship between them, but is it good for him to be seen with her with his team trying to make it to the championships?

This book seems to glorify spinning the block (returning to an ex) for no reason other than your feelings. While this works well in novels and books, it’s not realistic, for some. Honestly, I’m not hating on it but it seems predictable.This book also highlights how to balance work, love, and ego which I can appreciate about it, nonetheless. So, if you’re looking for a Hallmark movie in book form, here you go. Again, I loved the book for reasons other than love: But that’s just my take.

This YA Romance is interesting book that had all of the teen angst and drama that i associate with YA. It even had drama filled moments and love triangles included. It was a cute story that was well written and clean (shudders in lack of smuttt lol) and i enjoyed the main characters, drama included. It just wasn’t really my kinda story but I think it would be perfect for someone that loves typical YA romance so definitely pick this one up if that’s your cup of tea.
Happy Reading!

I have enjoyed reading books by this author in the past. I specifically like that she writes YA books that are clean that I feel comfortable getting for my daughter. It is fun learning about Valeria Joseph, how she feels about her life in New York, what happened with her on set boyfriend Lance, how things didn’t quite work out like she expected with him. To read how Valeria truly feels as she realizes how lonely a big city like New York can be and missing many of the life long friends she used to confide in. It has to be tough for a young actress to keep going!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

Stars In the City (Stars in the City Series) by Krysten Lindsay Hager is a YA romance story- with all the teenage drama, friendship, angst, jealousy, romance, and emotion you could expect from a YA romance story. It also has some sweet moments that made even my old, jaded heart, flutter for a beat or two.
As with the other books that I have read by Ms. Hager, this is a well-woven story, but definitely suited to a younger audience.
If you love YA, romance, soap opera stars on the rise, emerging pop stars, basketball players, angsty teen drama, friendship, connection, first love, love-triangle-ish storylines, and sweet moments- then you will definitely want to add this to your TBR.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Krysten Lindsay Hager!

This was a quick read for me. It was a bit predictable but had some good connectable points despite its YA target audience. I enjoyed the characters and the overall plot. It was engaging and I felt that the story did have a nice overall flow. This would definitely hit better in the target audience than it did for me.

I loved this story. The author has a way of writing that leaves you feeling the emotions of the story. The writing was strong and very well-done for the age it was targeted at. I’m an old woman but I really enjoy reading this author’s stories because they remind me of the young adult books that used to come out when I was younger. You felt the story. The characters were exciting and intriguing. Overall, this is a terrific story for the YA/NA group. I’m going to read the sequel to it.

It has been a while since I have read a book by this author and as soon as I started reading this I remember what I liked about her work so much. She has a really distinctive writing style. Each book sets its own pace and really engages you, as the reader. The story was well thought out and fit the characters perfectly.
This author has really found her footing with this genre. She really knows how to portray the emotions and thoughts of this age of character. Even though I don’t fall into the intended reader for this story, or really any of her books, I still always enjoy them. This was a great book that I would suggest you read.

Looks can be deceiving. What looks like an ideal world is not what it seems. We catch up with old friends and characters from the previous books. Make sure to read the books in this series in order. The story flows well and is well written.
Stars in the City by Krysten Lindsay Hager is a romance tale for YA/NA readers. It is a short story that is full of the usual insecurities, drama and angst, anxiety, jealousy and misunderstandings just to name a few.
Valeria is an actress but hates the notoriety that comes with it. She hates the spotlight and prefers to stay in the background. Try dating someone who is famous whilst having to deal with the fame is not what she could have ever imagined. Falling for your first love all over again who is famous in his own right, and it could be a recipe for disaster.
Krysten is known to be good at writing this genre for the YA/NA readers so get on board and start reading her books today.
