At least the protagonist actually realizes, about, two-thirds through the book, that it is good idea if a film has something resembling a plot.

I tried, but I just couldn't get into this. I made it through the first 100 pages and I just didn't feel like going any further. It just couldn't grab my attention.
Cute. Good beach reading!
