Fifteen Minutes by Karen Kingsbury ~ Review

Lucie's Review:

Zack Dylan joins the cast of Fifteen Minutes, as a way to save the farm, but overnight he becomes a country music singing sensation and one of the top contenders of the reality show. But as Zack progresses on the show, how much will he sacrifice his values?

Zack is given a once in a lifetime chance, yet along the way he is tested and tempted and asked to compromise his values and tone down his faith. It was hard to read about him making such bad decisions and there were moments when I honestly just wanted to shake him. There were also some side stories about the judges of the show, both who had fame and how it adversely affected both of them.

I really liked Reese and how she always tried to think the best of Zack, even when things didn't look good.

This was a quick read that I zoomed through, because everything seemed to be falling apart and I just wanted everything to get better--fast!

Overall this wasn't my favorite Karen Kingsbury book, but it had some intriguing stories. And shows the downside of fame.
