(4) YA Two high school girls, one a steely dark-haired aspiring moviemaker, the other a fragile blond dreamer, form an intense friendship, which acts as a lifeline when they get sucked into the soulless Hollywood scene. As usual, Block's glittery descriptions are out in full force, and adolescents will probably groove on all the high drama, although it often goes over the top to become almost corny.
