Title: I hate writing reviews like this, but it was disappointing.
Product review: Thankfully, I bought this at a used bookstore and did not pay full price for it. I read Valley of the Dolls the first time a few months ago and was absolutely thrilled with it. Now upon reading this one, I wasn't expecting Valley of the Dolls revisted, but it really wasn't up to par. Valley of the Dolls is a trashy, compelling romp. I found Robin Stone one dimensional and solipsistic, with a bunch of silly, boring females fawning over him.If you are a die-hard Jacqueline Susann fan, you might want to borrow it from the library before purchasing it. Otherwise, don't bother. I'm half-way through Once is Never Enough, and it is much better.
