The One

"The details of Chloe's rise in Hollywood are an enjoyable blend of believably realistic and fancifully easy. Chloe herself is...delicious...she's a single-minded Machiavel, but her narration also reveals that she's funny and imperfect.... a determined and charismatic adventuress."

"I found my favorite book ever! I loved this book, from the bottom of my heart--I loved it! It's as simple as that. I loved the story, the writing the characters--all of it! I am going to go totally unprofessional and end this review right here because all I need to tell you is that it's an amazing book and all of you will love it. There's something for everyone in it and you all will enjoy it..."

"This young adult novel alternates between charm and humor-and the gritty reality of show business and life in the big city. Decter's characters are so realistically drawn you can almost feel the blood pulsing in their veins, and you find yourself trying to anticipate the reactions of Chloe, her brother Travis, and her mom, Earlene, to the curves Hollywood tosses them."
