Starlet Run The Starlet Series #2 Carla J Hanna 9781480263147 Books

Surprisingly, this second book of the Starlet's series
was better written than the first.
Liana Marie Michaels is truly discovering who she is and
Manuel is likewise finding who he is.
The question is; Will this discovery allow them to stay
together or direct them into going separate ways?
Marie Michaels makes a major decision for her future.
That decision leads us to the next book of the series in
an effective way.
There was not the obsession with excessive hormones in his book
but I would still not encourage this for YA. Although there is nothing
within the pages they do not face each day, the "world" does
not need to be encouraged by inviting it into our homes and
our youth's individual lives. The language is still crude and
the content is still quite sexual.
There is little adventure but mostly drama in this story.
Setting aside my personal biases, my review of this book is a
solid Four Star rating.

Starlet Run The Starlet Series #2 Carla J Hanna 9781480263147 Books Reviews

Book two, Starlet's Run, picks up right where Starlet's Web left off answering the pressing questions we were all left wondering!

Liana Marie has finally admitted she is in love with Manuel. Liana's also dealing with surviving the cancer that was attributed to the drugs she was given unknowingly that were meant to keep her looking younger, but instead caused a medical problem. Liana is trying to deal with everything surrounding her medical issues and also bring herself and Manuel closer as a couple at the same time.

The author gives you more insight into the characters in this installment, and you are able to get to know them more closely. You can tell the growth with the characters, they have realized that some decisions have consequences that they were not ready for. The author also takes the reader into the back story and you are then able to get to know the reasoning behind everything that happened. Scarlet's Run was a great read! - Billie Jo
[Full disclosure Carla Hanna sent me Starlet's Run as part of a thank you for hosting a successful giveaway of her first two books. As always, this is still an honest review.]

I actually liked Starlet's Run better than Starlet's Web for various reasons. First was that we really got to see the destructive influence of Hollywood on Lia's life and relationship with Manuel. Secondly, Lia developed far more as a character in the face of her medical problems and she really grew into her relationship with Manuel. Seeing the two of them struggle with her career, but eventually learn to strike a balance was satisfying. They're not a picture perfect couple, but they do have a really strong bond and a healthy relationship despite outside factors. I don't want to give anything away, but Lia's relationships with other characters like her mother throughout Starlet's Run also take interesting turns.

I wouldn't call the plot fast-paced since this is a more character based novel, but it's not like Carla J. Hanna drags the story on and on either. It's somewhere in the middle, but mainly you should read it for the subtle messages and for the characters. You'll want to cheer for Lia the whole time and you'll love her even more as she grows as a character. Not only does she grow within her relationship with Manuel, she grows on her own. She has a life and friends outside of her relationship, unlike some YA heroines who have their partner and no one else.

One of the strengths of Carla Hanna's writing is that she can get a message across without being obvious about it or preaching to her audience. She subtly criticizes the Hollywood lifestyle as well as the social expectations it places upon ordinary people, especially girls. Lia is also a very spiritual character without really being overly religious so she is also appealing to people from very different religious backgrounds.

Overall, I loved Starlet's Run and with that awesome ending, I can't wait to dive into the third book, Starlet's Light.

I give this book 5/5 stars.
After reading the first book, I was hoping this book would continue to live up to my expectations and it definitely did! This series is a great YA read, that can be very relatable. While it has a great storyline, they also have a deeper message hidden within the pages. It teaches young girls especially, that Hollywood and fame isn't all it's made out to be. Personally, when I was younger I remember always wanting to be "famous" and this series helps shows girls it's not all about the glamour and fame. I found myself relating a lot to Liana especially and enjoyed watching her romance grow.
Carla J. Hanna has another great installment of her 'Starlet' series in "Starlet's Run."

Hanna does a great job of weaving a story around characters in such a way that readers' imaginations can make it feel like it is happening in front of them, almost like one is watching her episodic story on T.V. This story, just like "Starlet's Web," has some good plot twists and will keep readers entertained.

The main character, Liana, is someone young adults can relate to. Her emotions and how she deals with her struggles feel very much like how any eighteen year old in her place might feel and act.

Overall, this is a book that is perfect for romance or drama readers young and old!
