As the last season of Family Affair comes to a close, primetime teen star Kaitlin Burke is no closer to deciding what's next after the show ends, even with cast of opinionated family members and staff who all think they know what's best for her. What's a starlet to do when she has the world at her French-pedicured feet and can't decide her next move?
Struggling with career choices and despondent over a ridiculous catfight with her BFF Liz, Kaitlin falls in with two of Hollywood's biggest party fiends when one of them asks her "Don't you ever do what you want to do?" But being at the center of the Tinsel town nightlife circuit might just be the downfall of Kaitlin's reputation, relationships with friends and family... and her career.
This is such a great series. The books are a lot of fun and very cute. Paparazzi Princess, is my favorite of the series so far. The series is very clean, so they are an excellent choice for younger teens and middle grade readers.
The writing is very simplistic and readable. Kaitlin is a great character! An excellent heroine and fictional role model! I was glad to see Kaitlin make some mistakes in this one and still come out on top, by taking responsibility for her actions. If only all Hollywood starlets would have such grace!
Overall an energizing read with great characters and a fun plot! Cannot wait for the next one.
