Book Reviews of Some Like It Hot: An A-List Novel (A-List # 6)
Book Review: ...Drama never seems to end :)
Summary: 5 Stars
"I don't like being alone."
Some Like It Hot was one of Zoey Dean's best books. All of her books are great and make you want to keep turning the pages, but this one was especially filled with drama. Since she is a very creative writer who knows exactly what teenage girls want to read. I have pictured the whole story in my head for every book of hers I have read written from her and finished them within two weeks. Everyone of her books has meaning to it and teaches life lessons.
In all six A-List novels, Sam is a fat and very insecure girl, and the author does a good job making the point that you can be "fat" and "beautiful" at the same time. Sam doesn't think a guy will be attracted to her and fears that they will use her to get to her dad who is a big time movie director. She feels this way because she has been used many times in the past.
Some Like It Hot, begins at the point when Sam and Eduardo have been long distance dating for almost a year. Since Sam lives in Hollywood and Eduardo lives in Paris they only get to see each other on a few vacations. Luckily Eduardo will be in town for Sam's prom, but at the last minute he can't go with her. Sam asked Parker to go to prom with her instead and Eduardo found them making out at her after party. I thought that it was thoughtful of Eduardo to surprise her, but I can see it wasn't a good idea. I didn't like that he just showed up without calling. I wondered if just Eduardo didn't trust her or if he showed up because he wanted to be with her. I'm actually kind of glad that Eduardo caught Sam kissing Parker because she was actually the one who kept picturing Eduardo with other girls in their long-distance relationship. I see that Sam needs to realize that it's bad for her to be picturing Eduardo with other girls, as if she wasn't worthy of his loyalty.
If Zoey Dean writes another book, I hope that Sam and Parker end up getting together because Parker really cares about Sam. He's always by her side, and has encouraged her movie making interest.
This book reminded me of the TV show "Laguna Beach" because there's so much drama that never seems to end; Kristin and LC fought over Stephen, and Eduardo and Parker both like Sam in Some Like It Hot.
Zoey Dean is trying to show that you should realize the people who are your real friends are and be grateful you have them. She also shows that insecurity and low self esteem negatively affect relationships. I see that Sam needs to realize that its bad for her to be picturing Eduardo with other girls, as if she wasn't worthy of his loyalty. I really liked how Zoey Dean put these real life issues in Some Like It Hot because these problems do happen to teenagers today.
