- Not how I pictured it / by Lefler, Robin,author.;
"Agnes "Ness" Larkin has been out of the spotlight since her quick departure twenty years ago from a starring role in a hit teen TV drama. When the show is tapped for a reboot, no one is more surprised than Ness that she signs on to rejoin the cast, leaving behind a normal--if not exactly thrilling--life in Toronto. Also back for round two are Libby, Ness's former best friend and soon-to-be makeup-empire magnate, and Hayes, Ness's one-that-got-away, who has risen to A-list fame (and somehow gotten even better looking) in the ensuing years. After the cast sets off for filming near the Bahamas, a storm rolls in and leaves the seven actors and one production assistant stranded on a small island, with only an abandoned, derelict mansion in which to wait out the storm. But when the weather clears and a new day rises, they find that their boat is gone. Stuck in a bizarre, crumbling house on an uninhabited island with possibly the most useless survival group in history, Ness and her co-stars are forced to revisit a minefield of past transgressions and come to terms with the adults they've become as they work together to ride out their personal storms. Or at least pretend to. They are actors, after all. Interspersed with weather reports, fictional memoir excerpts and Perez Hilton-esque blog posts, Not How I Pictured It is a rollicking novel of delightful absurdity, pithy dialogue and no shortage of heart."--- Subjects: Romance fiction.; Novels.; Actors; Actresses; Islands; Man-woman relationships; Storms; Survival;
