Annotation: When the PC (Pretty Committee) goes to a talk show, they never expected to become Hollywood Royalty.
Summary: Meet Massie, Dylan, Alicia, Kristen, and Claire, the members of the Pretty Committee (a.k.a. the PC). Dylan’s mom has a famous TV show called the Daily Grind which interview stars. One day, Dylan learns that Abby and Hadley is doing an interview for her mom for a movie that is coming out starring both of the girls. This is special since Hadley can not stand Abby and always refuses to do an interview with her. Dylan invites the PC to come and see the show. During the show, Abby pours tomato sauce on Hadley and Hadley quits the movie. Rupert, the director borrows Massie’s phone because his cell is ringing off the hook. He never gave it back, but the next day, Rupert invites Massie and her friends except for Dylan, to audition for a part in the movie. Since the PC is expelled from their school (read about it in the Pretty Committee Strikes Back), they have time to do the auditions. Alicia, Massie, and Claire are allowed to go. Who will get the part?
Critique: This book was awesome because I loved the details and the way the author described the room that Massie, Alicia, and Claire stayed in, the private jet that took them to LA, and the kind of outfits that they wore. The dialogue was great and had a lot of smart sayings in it. I liked Claire the most because she was the most innocent of the group. Massie was cool too because she figured out a lot of clever sayings such as…”Do you need a knife?” “No, why?” “So you can cut the cheese!”
