Ok, Jackie Collins is definitely my guilty pleasure. They say about her books: embarrassing to pick up, impossible to put down. I can totally understand why she is number 15 on the list of best-selling fiction authors. This series is so captivating all I do is flip pages like a mad man. Real page-turner for this hot-summer days. I remember when I read the first book in high school, got me hooked from the first page. I will definitely check this series once again from the first book.Compared to the previous three books, this story seemed a bit over the top in places. It's worth a read if you're a Lucky fan and want to see her go up against a female adversary for once. The style is still the same head-hop as the others, but I see how unfavorable characters are becoming less three-dimensional than the ones we're supposed to like. There are a few cringeworthy lines of dialogue (tw: transphobia) but I suppose that falls under the "product of its time" category.
I first read this book back in 1997 when it first came out. It was funny rereading it because so many things have changed. It kind of reminded me how different things are with the internet and cell phones! I still liked the book, maybe not as much as I did in my 20's, but it was a fast read that I enjoyed!
Quite a good read! This was my first time reading Jackie Collins. Mass-producing authors can be hit-and-miss sometimes, but from what I've read here, she's one of the good ones. There are numerous perspectives, but I had all the characters straight in my head despite this book being 4th in the series. All characters had surprisingly decent depth considering the 'shallowness' of many of their personalities. The story was good. There were no real slow bits, which is hard to do at 600 pages. Lots
The usual Collins rubbish - the type of book you read when you've got nothing else to read...
I have read a lot of Jackie Collins in the past, but was surprised by the very raunchy detail in this one, maybe I'm just getting older, but a little to much for me. This is the only reason I have marked it down to 4 stars.However, the storyline was brilliant, s you'd expect from Jackie, she is the best with Hollywood "Glitz and Gamour" stories. I may try another to see if the raunchy nature of her books is tamed down.I can only recommend this one if you are happy to read anything as juicy!
This one was definitely an improvement over Lady Boss, but it still wasn't as good as Lucky or Chances. Nevertheless, the story was riveting, and seeing Lucky back in her element was exciting. I really liked the plot about Lennie, although I thought his story could have been a novel in itself--a sort of raunchy Robinson Crusoe. In any other story, I would have cheered for him to run away with Claudia, but this is the Lucky Santangelo series, so he's meant to be with Lucky. Some of the sex scenes
