Despite being a classic had I before I got asked if I wanted to participate in the blog tour never read nor seen the movie version of Valley of the Dolls. But, since I'm a daring person when it comes to books did I not hesitate to read it, despite not knowing much about the book. I do not know how big a hit the book was in Sweden when it was published, but I have never really heard that much about the book, could be because I was not born when it was published. So, it was interesting to read aStarting this book was like going to the opening of a new nightclub.Everything is glitzy and glamorous, everyone is happy and smiling, there is a VERY attractive barman helping you to the most delicious drinks all night. Your new red stilettos get loads of complements and you dance the night away with energy to spare.Finishing this book was like seeing this same nightclub the next morning. The air is stale and smells slightly of vomit, the tables are sticky with spilled drinks, the carpet is
This classic tells of the darker side of the entertainment lifestyle and still carries a positive note throughout. Definitely an amazing book. :)
Read this back in the 70's. My teenage self thought it was so scandalous!!
Some novels have baggage. Valley of the Dolls, Jacqueline Susann's 1966 bestseller, arrived like a Lear jet rolling into Aspen and unloading a cargo hold full of contraband. This rags to riches tale chronicling the show business rise and fall of three women features nightlife, penthouses, virgins, abortion, drug overdoses, a fight in the ladies' room and the search for love, all doled out in the most mundane language possible. Contrary to my expectations, I ate it up.Unfolding over twenty years
Zzzzzzzzzz.....Valley of the Dulls is more like it. One hundred pages was all I could stand of endless cheesy dialogue between a bunch of sleazy people with no personalities. Watch the movie instead. At least it's bad enough to be entertaining.
A trashy treasure of a chick lit novel.I'm so guilty..... For three things.1. I liked how melodramatic this horrible written novel was. 2. I could feel my brain cells dwindling as I read it.3. I stayed up for nights reading this book.Errrr.........I'm very embarrassed but I'll give this a five, for enjoying it 100% percent , all the way to the sleazy cliche oversexed men to the dull cliche girls. I like it! Not for the literary stand -point of the novel because we all know there isn't any in
