Sizzle Reel by Carlyn Greenwald is a hilarious and tender romance featuring the most relatable journey through figuring out what love, sex, and friendship can mean. After I finished reading all I wanted to do was explore LA with a camera, curate a playlist of my favorite angsty crush songs, and put this book in the hands of every friend I can think of who really, really needs this story.
Alicia Thompson, bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers
A charming, sharply observed, and wholly immersive debut. Sometimes you read a book and know from the very beginning that it s going to leave a mark on you, and I felt that so deeply with Sizzle Reel. This vibrant, sun-drenched romantic comedy is both an irresistible love story and a riveting exploration of Hollywood dynamics, with a voice that shimmers on every page. Carlyn Greenwald has a permanent place on my favorites shelf.

Fresh, sexy, and addicting, Sizzle Reel is the sapphic story of my dreams. Greenwald writes with such remarkable authenticity and care, this book is easy to fall in love with. Readers are sure to see themselves and feel seen.
Annette Christie, author of The Rehearsals
Sizzle Reel is Romance in technicolor; every scene, emotion, and beat fully captivates the senses leaving readers breathless. Carlyn Greenwald s writing is fresh, raw, and brilliant, whipping across each page in vivid, stunning strokes. The themes of sex positivity, deep self-care, and exploration of identity are beautiful, validating gifts to the queer community."
Courtney Kae, author of In the Event of Love
Greenwald s coming of age romance is as charming and witty as it is tender, relatable, and poignant. LA and the high-stress world of the entertainment industry sizzles on the page. Greenwald affirms, with gentleness and care, the experience of grappling with sexuality and coming out later in life. This book is sexy, sweet, and full of love; for ourselves, for queerness, for found family, and for the one person your heart belongs to.
Ruby Barrett, author of The Romance Recipe
A fresh, funny, and wonderfully tender rom com about identity, friendship, and the beautiful power of first love.
Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn t Care
Fun. . . . Luna s got a snappy voice, and the abundant pop culture references keep the tale firmly anchored in its Hollywood setting. . . . Greenwald shows real promise.
