I am currently reading ‘Ashes to Ashes’ by A. Lonergan.
This story follows Cinderella and Prince Charming’s daughter, in a life that s not what it seems. It also has under 1,000 ratings on Goodreads.

Funny Girl, by Nick Hornby

There are two songs with this title, The Uncanny Valley by SweetSour and Uncanny Valley by Dan Wilson. The edition I read was subtitled Seduction and Disillusionment in San Francisco's Start-Up Scene and that sums up the author's writing about her working life as customer support in Silicon Valley. SweetSour's lyrics include I can see you showing your teeth/These are the valleys of greed , which is relevant to Wiener's disillusionment, while Wilson's song is set in California. It's mainly about his creative process, but contains the lyrics Maybe I was wrong , California beauty - just don't look too close and Everyone I met was going to be a star , all of which relate to the book.
