This author I hadn't heard of it before, but I was busy scrolling through the Libby App and looking at the new releases on the app and came across this book the cover caught my eye, and after reading the blurb, it sounded like something I would enjoy. Through His Eyes takes us on a journey into the life of Jessica who is originally from the UK and had dreams of becoming a famous entertainment journalist in LA. It hasn't been all sunshine and roses, as the job entails lots of late nights, random events, and freelance jobs nobody wants but it pays the rent.
