Icecream Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Sounds interesting. what is it like?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottishbookworm Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 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. 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leetid Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 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.

Guest Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 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!

Leetid Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leetid Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leetid Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I've just read 'Mondays Child' and I did enjoy it, I have another one of hers which I will read soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I don't think I've heard of her...will have to keep my eyes open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paige Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I've read Tuesday's Child and I wasn't all that impressed. I doubt I'll read any more of her books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkle Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nici Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I struggled with Sparkles as well and like you Twinkle normally I love her books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottishbookworm Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 I struggled with Sparkles as well and like you Twinkle normally I love her books. Me too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petit_canard25 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I have only read Career Girls. It wasn't that bad of a novel. I thought it was very vulgal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen1 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I've got Glitz and a few of her other ones in my TBR pile waiting to be read ... although some of them have been there a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
