This review is from: Prime Time (Hardcover)

Corruption, Lust, Sex, Betrayal . . . This book has it all.
The story of five acresses & their struggle for one star part. Joan Collins' novel is a glimpse at the lives of ambitious young women and their hunger for success.
Set against a background of great wealth, luxurious homes, yachts etc.
An enjoyable book. A non-stop page-turner.

5.0 out of 5 stars PURE ESCAPISM, January 3, 2005

By 

Martin Boucher "Authorfan" (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Prime Time (Hardcover)

Joan Collins can put novelist to her resume now with this page-turner of the rich and rotten. Her brochette of characters are a likable bunch, as they suffer and suffer during the making of a nightime soap opera. And bubbles sure do float in this glossy, effective novel. Collins's prose is sharp, witty and wicked, with a fast-moving plot and glamorous descriptions of clothing, sexual escapades, champagne and caviar parties--all the right ingredients for making PRIME TIME a one sitting read. Yes, glitter is her game, but can you really expect anything else from the queen of television's melodrama herself ?-----Martin Boucher

This review is from: Prime Time (Paperback)

I HAVE AT LEAST 3 COPIES OF THIS BOOK. THE FIRST TIME I BOUGHT IT, IT WAS A PAPERBACK COPY. THE SECOND TIME I PURCHASED IT, I BELIEVE IT WAS ON A CLEARANCE TABLE IN A BOOKSTORE. THEN RECENTLY I BOUGHT IT AGAIN, FOR $.50 AT THE LOCAL LIBRARY WHERE I LIVE. I READ THIS BOOK YEARS AGO. BUT I REMEMBER THE PAPERBACK BEING A BIT HARD TO READ. BUT THEN I HAD NO TROUBLE WITH THE SECOND COPY. I FOUND IT TO BE A VERY PLEASANT READ. BUT THEN FOR SOME REASON THE THIRD COPY I OWN IS EVEN BETTER. AM I READING DIFFERENT VERSIONS OR AM I JUST ENJOYING THE BOOK NOW? I REMEMBER WHEN THIS BOOK FIRST HIT THE SHELVES. DYNASTY WAS OVER AND I WAS LEFT WITH: WHAT AM I GOING TO REPLACE IT WITH! BY THE END OF THE "1990'S" JOAN HAD ONLY WRITTEN ABOUT 3 NOVELS. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS EITHER PERTAINING TO "BEAUTY" OR AN UPDATE ON HER FIRST AUTOBIOGRAPHY. EVENTHOUGH I WANTED MORE MATERIAL WRITTEN BY JOAN COLLINS, I WOUND UP READING "JACKIE'S" BOOKS BECAUSE I HAD READ EVERYTHING AVAILABLE BY JOAN. "PRIME TIME" IS EVEN BETTER NOW. I AM REDISCOVERYING IT ALL OVER AGAIN. THIS BOOK IS EVEN BETTER THAN I REMEMBER. I MAY JUST DIG UP THE REST OF HER NOVELS AND READ THOSE OVER TOO. BUY THIS BOOK IF YOU HAVEN'T. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.
