Stars―they're just like us! Except much, much worse. Rose Aslani is mid-bikini wax when her phone lights up with a notification: Famed scam artist Poppy Hastings will be released from prison today. It's been two years since Rose―a first-generation Middle Eastern American, functional trainwreck, and reporter for online journal The Shred―wrote the investigative article that exposed Poppy as a socialite grifter. Normally, one of her articles going viral would be cause for celebration, but the highly publicized trial that followed turned Poppy into the internet's favorite celebrity. And Rose has been reeling from the aftermath ever since. Although Poppy served her time for defrauding some of the richest, most powerful men in the world, Rose knows this is only the tip of the iceberg for Poppy's crimes. She just can't prove it yet… At least not without the help of a devilishly handsome FBI agent gone rogue. As Poppy's star rises as an influencer and pop-culture icon, Rose quickly descends into a downward spiral of guilt and obsession. Her article created Poppy's fame, so Rose needs to right her wrong by exposing Poppy for the monster that she is. But it's not going to be easy taking down the most famous girl in the world. Campy, satirical, and utterly hilarious, The Most Famous Girl in the World is both a scathing indictment of modern celebrity and a thrilling rollercoaster ride of unhinged hijinks that will keep you gasping at every turn of the page.

    So at first was very excited to read this book. However, as I started to read, I found Rose (our main character) annoying and immature. She sounded like a teenager obsessed with a celebrity instead of a grown woman. Also, I couldn't stand the use of the f-word every other sentence. It was so unnecessary. I don't mind cursing in books, but this was too much. Anyway, this book gave me major Anna Delvey Vibes but Poppy Hastings might be a murder. I thought the book would have more action but it is certainly more drama and humor. I feel neutral about Simon and I found the romance lacks chemistry. It is as if the author just wanted to include romance in this. The spice was okay, but it did nothing for me. Overall, I'm a bit disappointed with this book. It was boring and it dragged. In conclusion, I found the last few chapters to be pretty good. I wish the whole book was like that. Also, the epilogue was crazy. I wonder if there's a second book? Not sure if I'll read it.

    I guess I give this 3 stars.
