Acting the part / Acting the part : When your life is full of Hollywood magic, how can you tell what's actually real? Z. R. Ellor. - First edition. - 278 pages ; 22 cm
Queer actor Lily Ashton has found fame playing lesbian warrior Morgantha on the hit TV show Galaxy Spark. Lily knows how little representation queer girls have, so when the showrunners reveal that Morgantha's on-screen love interest, Alietta, is going to be killed off, Lily orchestrates an elaborate fake-dating scheme with the standoffish actress who plays her, to generate press and ensure a happy ending for the #Morganetta ship. But while playing a doting girlfriend on-and-off screen, Lily struggles with whether a word like "girl" applies to them all, and whether being their authentic self will undermine all the progress they've worked so hard to achieve.
