This is the continuing
story of three starlets in they heyday of Hollywood. Gabby has an addictive personality and
an overbearing mother. She is trying to keep her career alive, luckily she is a
talented singer, but her life runs a foul when she meets the musician Eddie.
Margo is a rising star with a handsome boyfriend, but her life is completely
run by the studio, and she misses her family, who won’t have anything to do
with her. Amanda is down on her luck, both in love and in her career. She will
do anything to get Harry, a writer, back.
The characters
were all very similar, at times I felt very confused about whose plot we had
switched to. They were all mopey and whiney and didn't put out much effort to better their situations. In short, a big soapy drama with lots of sex talk. Not
for a public school library.
