Book Reviews of Lovely Me: The Life of Jacqueline Susann

Book Review: A Lady Who Changed Modern Fiction.
Summary: 4 Stars

I first got familiar with Ms. Susann's Books after seeing a copy of Once Is Not Enough. I was too young to understand what the book is about but I became interested in her after seeing the TV Movie starring Michele Lee and reading "Lovely Me."

I have to admit, the lady had guts, raw nerve and most of all spunk. She believed in herself when nobody else did and yet at the same time made publishing history.

Although her rituals in writing were strange to me as seen on a Biography Spotlight Special, the results speak for themselves. She wrote about things that nobody mentioned to write about and she showed how much she appreciated people for what they did from her longtime friend Carol Bjorkman to her husband Irving to most of all the fans as well as the Shipping Clerks for Publishing Houses. Most of all she was able to be successful enough to be able to be in a position to take care of her son Guy who is now 53 years old and is still institutionalized. I also feel that were it not for her taking chances, we may not have ever had a Judith Krantz, Jackie Collins or even any other hot new writer on the scene. She is a Legendary Literary Icon and always will be.
