Summary: Glamorous and Glossy!
Review: It may of been trashy, brainless, tawdry melodrama but I loved this book! Jackie takes all the stereotypes of Hollywood celebrities and throws them together into a glamor-packed soup of gossip and subplots! Like a 500-page tabloid! The characters are all true-to-form spoiled, self-obsessed divas. The goings on are appropriately scandalous. The many talents and many husbands, the wild rich kids, the gay followers, it's all here!

The perfect Hollywood novel it may not have much substance but since that's what's expected of its subjects it's just perfect!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Jackie Collins- Hollywood Wives- The Next Generation

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved It!
Review: My husband took care of the kids for the day and a half that it took me to read this book. I could NOT put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this book got my juices flowing
Review: Oh my gosh! Hollywood Wives the New Generation was my first Jackie Collins book, and what a way to hook me in! I usually don't read romance novels but I just couldn't put this one down. The characters were more outlandish and scandalous than I ever could imagine but it was fun to get caught up in the lives of Lissa, Nicci, Gregg, and the rest of the crew. The book was yummy and definitely not my last Jackie Collins book. I am going to read all of them, I only hope they can live up to Hollywood Wives!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worth the read!
Review: One of the reasons I've found Jackie Collins to be such an enjoyable author is that she creates memorable characters. Her novels, usually are loaded with characters that you'd like to know and those that you'd like to take down a few pegs.
Not so the case with HOLLYWOOD WIVES-THE NEXT GENERATION. The characters are boring, predictable, shallow, and totally not Jackie Collins.
Don't waste your money or your time.

Summary: A True Hollywood Story
Review: Only Jackie Collins can get away with mixing Romance, Adventure and a Psychotic killer into a great book. The book started off slow but after awhile it picked up and I could not put the book down. I have always enjoyed reading her books and never been disappointed.

This book would have gotten five stars from me, but the title did not fit the story line. I was expecting her to write on various Hollywood wives, like her first book, but she based the story around two women. This was the only thing that I did not care for. But after that, I would recommend the bookto anyone who enjoys reading Jackie Collins' novels.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great beach book!
Review: Take it to the beach and enjoy yet another Jackie Collins gem of the genre. Fun if not a bit predictable but again, one for the beach!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: POWER, SEX, AND MURDER
Review: The new Hollywood wives are back, and this time they mean business. In the 80's the Hollywood wives were happy with playing the part of a rich wife...having dinner parties, attending charity events, spending money, and the occasional affair. This time around the wives want more...they want to run movie studios, manage their careers, and have everything life can offer - and even then their not satisfied.

Lissa Roman is a mega movie star, and a chart topping singer. At 40 years old, she rules hollywood, until she catches wind that her much younger husband is cheating on her.

Nicci Stone, Lissa's wild 19 year old daughter is engaged to a hot up-and-coming director, but as her life seems to be falling into place she is faced with a major dilema...she may be in love with her fiance's brother.

Taylor Singer is struggling to make a name for herself in Hollywood. Married to an Oscar winning genius, Taylor will do anything to make it big including sleeping with a sleazy screenwriter, and starring in a straight-to-cable lesbian film.

And then we have Eric Vernon, a twisted individual who has just been released from prison. Eric has spent six long years behind bars, and the whole time he has perfected his plan...Now he is out, lurking the streets of Hollywood, and he has a score to settle - one of Hollywood's elite will pay, and they will pay with their life!

'Hollywood Wives: The New Generation' is everything one would expect in a Jackie Collins novel; sex, power, money, and murder. Fast pacing, and sharp plotting keeps the readers on the edge of their seat, and the steamy sex keeps the pages turning. A summer is not complete without a new novel by Ms. Collins, they are good, trashy, fun novels that readers will devour in one sitting.

What can one say about Jackie Collins? She is the undisputed master of the Hollywood novel, she knows Hollywood inside and out, and for a few hours readers are treated to a first class tour, with some murders thrown in along the way!

A great beach read!
