Summary: Coscarelli keeps getting better
Review: I discovered Kate Coscarelli by reading a review of her in one of my other books. They were reviewing Fame & Fortune and gave it a good review that I thought I would read it. Am I glad I did. After reading that book, I went on to read Leading Lady. It did not disappoint me at all. Kate likes to write about strong women characters which I like. This book is based on the mother of Bunny, a child turned women actress and her neglected grand daughter, Chelsea (Bunny's daughter). The book was very interesting because I love reading about Hollywood and the world of movie making. When I started reading the book, I really hated the mother of the actress. Her name is Laverne and she exploited her child Bunny in order to make her the world's most loved actress. While reading the book, I kept asking myself, if Laverne did it for Bunny or was she doing all the sneaky handed stuff for herself. Meanwhile I loved the grandchild Chelsea because despite having to live with these two women, she turned out to be pretty normal. Towards the end of the book, my feelings about the three women to start to change a little and the book has a surprise twist at the end which is really surprising and made the book even better. Can't say enough about how entertaining this book was without giving out the plot which some reviewers do, thus spoiling the whole book.
