A genuine page-turner! From the instant FLAVOR OF THE MONTH opens, you're caught. Goldsmith takes you on a roller coaster ride through Hollywood (where three aspiring actresses make it big),and never let go. What makes FLAVOR... different from other «Hollywood» novels is that the author succeeds, besides having a cleverly crafted plot, and a witty, unique dialogue, in making you care about her characters. Especially the one of Sharleen Smith, the innocent Texan who has a hard time dealing with the price of fame. The scene where she is abused on the Hollywood hills is heartbreaking. It is written with such skills that you find yourself with a lump in your throat. This is Olivia Goldsmith second novel and a far better book than her previous one. Better written, better structuted, better plotted. It is «the» ultimate Hollywood novel. Imagine what La-La land could make of this one. It has to be a television mini-series, though. Two hours is not just long enough to capture the essence of that wonderful, impossible-to-put-down novel! Hats off, miss Goldsmith!

This one has a lot of potential as far as I'm concerned!!!! If you like this one, try Pat Booth's Palm Beach and Sisters!!!!

A lot of this book is pretty good satire, especially the 3/4 show, which is apparently a combo of Charlie's Angels & Twin Peaks. Read more

Brewster Moore fell in love with Jahne after her surgery.
This book was lots of fun to read, but one of the things that Goldsmith apparently wanted to show was that beauty isn't as important as people think it is. Read more
