. . . and better they should be reading this? ? ? ? Jackie Collins is Britain's answer to Jacqueline Susan?? (well, the book takes place in London even though it sounds like some hashhouse off Sunset Boulevard) and since it's already been sold to pictures, and the paperback affiliation is assured, all you need worry about is pushing this hard core sex in hard covers. Namely it's about another Claudia and David (no, this is not for Rose Franken's girls) Claudia's a model with lots of display acreage from the neck down and David uses her for his soap commercial. Hooked on her to the point where he makes out with her publicly at a large party, he finally loses his wife: while Claudia (after a revolting scene with an aging film director) moves on to America as Miss Playgirl and David's retribution could not be more deservedly complete. Well, the world is indeed full of both married men and books, some of which are worse than others. This is being billed as another Valley but except for the cleavage, it has by no means the story values, although it's at the top of the best seller heap in Britain.

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 stars of stunning smut!, October 22, 1999

By A Customer

Jackie Collins, how can she make so much money by writing such trashy novels that we cannot stop reading (only to mock it)? This was the first Jackie Collins book I'd read, and I was positively roaring when I read it. Chalk full of cheap love affairs and sleazy characters, it'll make you want to meet Jackie Collins if only to ask her, "What the hell were you thinking."

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing!, November 15, 2001

This review is from: World Is Full of Married Men (Mass Market Paperback)

The contenet of this book was fine -- exactly what a Jackie Collins fan would expect. However, the ending is so disappointing, it made me angry! It seems more like cliffhanger than an ending. To tell you the truth, I'm still half expecting a sequel! Just when you're getting to the book's climax, IT ENDS! It is absolutely unnerving! This may be due to the facts that it was Ms. Collins' first book and was written back in 1968, I don't know. But I do know that of all the books she's written, this has got to be the worst.
