Finished reading 'Last Seen Online'! 'It's very good fun . I really like how it functions in concert with the og gottiewrites blog (which i need to reread now b/c some things have been adjusted in the blog version for continuity reasons), the mediation of the duality between celbrity and fan, what mass media and social media do to people on either side of the lens and screen,

just read all of Last Seen Online in one sitting

delilah was a fun character; her emotions felt real despite the kind of awkward teenager setting. this very much feels like an evelyn hugo situation though, the POV characters are far less interesting than the big names. to be perfectly honest, i'd have preferred a one-for-one unedited print version of the gottiewrites blog over LSO.

the story is clearly different in a lot of places compared to unauthorized fan treatise. imo, AUFT flows better.

as ive seen other reviews say, i think i might have just gone into LSO with different genre expectations. bless wren james for getting gottie published!

anyone have thoughts?

spoilers/rant under the read more

the big twist that it was anya the whole time-- i feel like it was unrewarding. her whole big villain speech was really uninteresting to me. i have mixed feelings about anya and rob being co conspirators; i feel like the unauthorised fan treatise had a more realistic tone and it seemed that robs friendships were fairly sincere despite the secrets. perhaps thats the point? that the fandom was so yaoi brained that even the girlboss murderer skipped off into the sunset?

i should probably also reread the Mom parts again; delilahs mom being gottie was a fun twist [carmens her name now....? i suppose anya Must have met her before] but i feel like that whole plotline was super underdeveloped. after rob gets out of prison does he?? forgive gottie?? pfffff haha delilah you are smooching my godson

When Delilah meets Sawyer Saffitz (son of the Anya Saffitz, aka Hollywood royalty), she becomes hooked on a decade-old scandal. In her quest for the truth, Delilah uncovers blogposts written by the mysterious “gottiewrites” and is soon caught up in a world of greed, fandom conspiracy theories … and murder.
