Lies. Love, and Breakfast at Tiffany's is based in the world of Hollywood...not the actors, but the behind the scenes world of film editing. It was very interesting and I really liked all of the lines from various movies that main character Silvia and her good friend Ben would tease back and forth. The witty dialogue between Silvia and Ben is one of my favorite things in this book.
There are so many unique things about Silvia, including how she survived cancer at a young age and lost her eye to the disease, she ended up getting a glass eye, and she named her eye "Audrey" after actress Audrey Hepburn. I also like how driven Silvia is to succeed and her very lively personality that helps her get through many obstacles in the way. Ben is a true gentleman and a big sweetheart. You want them to get together in this book, but it's like an awkward dance the whole time getting to that final outcome. It's sounds like my life all the way!
ππππππππππππAt times you to have to laugh or you'd cry a lot.
Lastly, I loved how Silvia is best friends with Emma,the main character from Julie's previous book, Lies Jane Austen Told Me. How fun to see her again because I loved that book. This Proper Romance is very different from others, but I have to say it was a very fun read and I recommend it for those looking for a change of pace from the "normal" romance. Get ready to read and laugh your way through, Lies, Love, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
