I read her long before I thought about reviewing and loved them. Kind of like Jackie Collins. Steamy, but not romances because the women were in charge!

Oh my gosh…she wrote that?! No wonder I love her. I totally forgot that. This one was extra fun as it had dirt on the publishing industry.

What?! That is so sad, but makes complete sense. Now I have to google it to learn more.

I think I read this one. It’s been so long I can’t remember. But I thought she was good fun.

The Bestseller sounds like an entertaining read and I will certainly pick it up. I really appreciate a review of a backlist book because I tend to focus on whatever is new and shiny. In real life, I think Olivia Goldsmith was somewhat obsessed with aging. As a matter of fact, she died at the age of 54 from complications from plastic surgery. That gives me some insight into her description of droopy eyelids on a 58-year-old.
