Evaluation Appertaining To Books Valley of the Dolls

Hollywood is run by men. And men are cruel. It doesn't help when things like the wish to please and to be loved come into play for women like the three that this book is about. This was an unexpectedly burdensome read that I didn't expect to affect me as much as it did. Valley of the Dolls centers around the friendship of three young women: The romantic Anne, the talented Neely and the beautiful Jennifer. All three of them come to New York in the 40s in order to make it and over the course of

If you haven't read this book, I suggest you quit dicking around on the internet and do absolutely whatever it takes to snag yourself a copy this instant. Granted it's probably not for everyone, but I gotta tell you, this is seriously among THE MOST VASTLY ENTERTAINING books I have ever read in my life.Imagine you are lying in a silk-sheeted waterbed next to a vast swimming pool, smoking a ridiculously long cigarette, wearing an Italian bikini and extremely large, expensive hat, and you've just

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

What an amazing book - I couldn't put it down. I had always envisaged this as old-school chick lit (and had avoided it until Virago released their delightful 30th Anniversary covers and I had to buy it for that) but it really isn't - it is a scathing attack on how women are used and abused by the entertainment media and spat right back out again while men are revered and protected. It is certainly bleak but the way the book is written with such clinical passion (yes I know - an oxymoron but apt)

Back cover proclaimed that it was brilliant. Was in fact rubbish. Lyon Burke is basically a cardboard cutout, yet apparently everyone's in love with him. What. The narrative is bad enough to be bad, but not bad enough to be funny. You spend pretty much the first half of the book wondering when something actually interesting is going to happen, and then when it does, you've lost any and all interest in the people that things are happening to. The only character I liked was Helen. On and on and on

A compulsively addictive book! I can see how this book made a stir when it first hit the shelves back in 1966 and became an instant classic. The women, the men are all horrible humans but thats what makes this book such a blast to read! Its the old story of rags to riches and then it all goes pear shape. Fame and fortune does not equal happiness, the catty and the selfish nature of the industry is shown through the vile and hedonistic characters. The booze, the pills are not enough to give

Wow, WHAT a read! I can definitely see why this novel has been hailed an all-time pop culture classic! I loved absolutely every minute of this book and I wish I could find more contemporary novels with the vim, wit, and insight that this book offered! This will always have a place on my shelf and will always be one of my all-time favorites! (Funny how my all-time favs this year have been classics rather than contemporaries, eh?) I highly recommend this book to all women, particularly those
