[Icecream]

Sounds interesting. what is it like??

[scottishbookworm]

it's good full of glitz and glamour not in the same sort of lines as a jackie collins or jilly cooper book.

this is what it's about.

:typing: details below


The glittering fortunes of the Massot family, vastly wealthy owners of one of the last great jewellery firms in Paris, were plunged into confusion seven years ago by the disappearance of Pierre Massot, it’s charismatic head. Now, his beautiful widow Sophie has decided the family—and the firm—must move on to survive. But her enemies have other ideas … For the trail of scandal is waiting to be uncovered, one that could rip the Massots’ carefully constructed world to shreds. What really happened to Pierre, and what is the family secret he tried so hard to conceal? The answers lie in the past, criss-crossing through a maze of long-concealed deception and naked ambition. The secrets of the past will shape the future, in a way

I have read all of Louise Bagshawe's books and they are all good. Some of titles are as follows:

The Movie
Tuesday's Child
Monday's Child
Venus Envy
Tall Poppies
When She Was Bad

They are worth a look at.

I've read most of her books, up to Monday's Child. That was when I started going off her. But I see her sister's got in on the writing game too; I recently bought 'Do Not Disturb'. I have a couple of Bagshawe sisters' books sitting on Mount TBR and I'll get around to them someday.

I followed Louise's writing since book one; I don't know what made me buy Career Girls, but I enjoyed it, read it more than once. I enjoy discovering a first-time author and following their career - it makes me feel all "Ner ner ner ner ner, I knew her before you!" (Similar to how I was with Marian Keyes when she was 'new').

LB's books got a bit samey though, and seemed to drag on a bit. Once she dropped the sex I realised there was little in her novels to entertain! :D

[Leetid]

I have noticed in her latest books she is writing more so the books are longer and seem to drag but I still find them a good read and will carry on buying her books.

[prospero]

I think she's taken out a lot of the bonking because she works in the Conservative Party now and is trying to be more respectable, because Tories never have sex. :)

[Leetid]

There was a bit of sex in Glamour which is her last one and she has got one called Glitz coming out on hardback soon.

[Leetid]

Just finished reading Glitz and it is another good book by Louise Bagshawe. You can tell that she had toned down her writing as the book is different to the rest - no sex scenes!

I've just read 'Mondays Child' and I did enjoy it, I have another one of hers which I will read soon :D

[kb.marsh]

I don't think I've heard of her...will have to keep my eyes open

[Paige]

I've read Tuesday's Child and I wasn't all that impressed. I doubt I'll read any more of her books.

[twinkle]

I've read most of her books. They're good to wind down with but didn't think Sparkles was up to her usual standard. I struggled with that one which I don't usually do with her books.

[Nici76]

I struggled with Sparkles as well and like you Twinkle normally I love her books.

[Stephanie2008]

I have read Glamour and really enjoyed it. I bought Glitz a few weeks ago because I knew her name. I'm looking forward to reading this :D

[scottishbookworm]

I struggled with Sparkles as well and like you Twinkle normally I love her books.

Me too!
