*Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book from the publisher on Netgalley in return for an honest review*AuthorLauren Graham is an actress best known for her roles on the critically acclaimed series Gilmore Girls and Parenthood. She has performed on Broadway and appeared in various films. She hold a B.A. in English from Barnard College and an M.F.A. in acting from Southern Methodist University. She lives in New York and Los AngelesReviewOk I will admit.. I am a sucker for the Gilmore Girls. I guess I saw the whole series like 5 or 6 times now (not counting one season reruns) When I found out Lauren Graham was writing a book I became very curious and knew I had to read this one. And the synopsis and cover are catchy too.I picked this book up during a read-a-thon. Picking up a review book during such an event is a risk because there are some extra factors playing a role in forming your opinion. Like what hour of the read-a-thon is it, are you cranky and so on. I found that this book was actually a very good book for the dark hours when you are fighting of sleep.The main character Franny is easily loved. A young woman with insecurities (easy to relate to), a dream (we love dreams) and enough courage to at least give her dream a try. Though she was fighting her demons I like the concept that she had the courage to give herself time to follow her dream. That is very inspiring.I loved the dialogs between Jane and Franny. It was sad there where so few. I loved Dan, he can go on my top ten bookish boyfriends at any given time. James I hated from the start, I felt like pushing him right out of the book.The story itself is told from Frannie's point of view. You are living in her head and in her day planner which includes doodles (of horses and other interesting things). There are parts in the book where I found the story chaotic but that could have been caused by the lack of sleep. Still it does all make sense and it fits with the character. I experienced the story as predictable but still refreshing. Fast paced and witty. It is for sure a great book when you want to pick up something at the side of a pool or on a rainy day when you need some light in your life.
