The Rock Star in Seat 3A by Jill Kargman follows Hazel, who has everything that she’s ever wanted: good paying job in the gaming industry, great apartment, awesome friends, and a loving boyfriend who is on the brink of proposing. The morning after her thirtieth birthday, Hazel boards a plane to LA for business, gets bumped up to first class, and is seated next to her life long crush, THE rock star Finn Schiller. During a bout with rough turbulence, the two get to talking and what ensues is an instant infatuation and connection for both. At first Hazel is hesitant, but after taking a break from her perfect boyfriend back home in New York, she dives head first into a life unlike anything she imagined- life on the road with a rock star. What ensues is like a wild dream … but is her wildest dream enough to make her happy?
An absolute riot, The Rock Star in Seat 3A by Jill Kargman is everything one would expect from a book about living out a rock “n” roll fantasy- uncensored and vulgar language, sharp wit, and over the top eccentricity. I absolutely adored the book and found myself actually rooting for Hazel and Finn because it was such an interesting twist on the stereotypical love story that we read so often these days. This book is an absolute blast and will make you rethink your “list” and would you, or wouldn’t you, actually go through with it if you were face-to-face with someone from yours. I for one doubt my own bravery and know that I would hardly say a word if I were put in the same situation. An absolute must-read for summer- deliciously fun!
