glamour by louise bagshawe

Add caption
The three young girls meet at a posh Beverly Hills high school because they are the outsiders; undesirables not good enough to mingle with the rest of the affluent student body. Thus Texan Sally Lassiter, Englishwoman Jane Morgan and Jordanian Helen Yanna form their own pact to help each other survive the bullying barracudas and harassing sharks. However, finances force Sally and Jane to drop out and Helen is packed off in marriage to live in the Middle East.

Over the next few years separately all three obtain business success with Sally a designer, Jane a corporate officer, and Haya (formerly Helen) an international carpet seller. A decade later, the trio meets in Los Angeles; where they concoct a concept to combine their skills to open up a luxurious shop GLAMOUR. While the store is extremely successful, the partners never recapture the level of friendship they had as teens and drift in separate directions while taking potshots at one another.

The obvious homage to Sex and the City is throughout this intriguing character study, but Louise Bagshawe puts her own spin on affluence and trysts. The three prime players contain differing personalities. As teens they need to bond with someone in similar dire straits, but as late twenties with professional success, they no longer need one another. Although there are some cul de sac scenes that feel like padding, fans of women’s modern fiction will enjoy following the exploits of three women in Los Angeles.

p/s:review ni copy paste jer dr sini... pendapat mummy novel nih tak membosankan..  banyak menceritakan tentang persahabatan antara 3 orang kawan yang semakin jauh disebabkan kerjaya mereka...bagaimanakah pengakhirannya,kena baca sendiri la..hehehe..(sebenarnya mummy pun lom abis baca lagi..)

book reviews: do not disturb

salam kawan-kawan...tajuk entry je 'do not disturb' tau?tak ditujukan wat sesape..huhuhhu..buat penggemar novel cam mummy, ni la novel yang mummy sedang baca sekarang tau?hehehe,dah sebulan kot tapi tak abis-abis lagi..bizi la konon...tapi seingat mummy,zaman remaja-remaji dulu,tak sampai seminggu mummy leh habiskan satu novel...tapi sekarang...haih...nak kata bizi ngan keje,dulu pun sama..nak kata bizi ngan anak-anak n bapak anak,tak pun sangat..entahla...
mungkin sebab peningkatan umur..mungkin..sebab zaman remaja,mummy boleh je tak tido satu malam demi nak abiskan baca novel,tapi sekarang sambil tidurkan anak,mummy pun ape lagi..sedar-sedar dah pagi...hurm..

book reviews: Do Not Disturb is set in the world of hotels. Honor Palmer is a hotel heiress who is forced to take over the running of Palmers Hotel in East Hampton when her father dies. The local residents do not take kindly to this so Honor has to build up her reputation again. She has to do this in spite of her publicity-seeking sister Tina who is bleeding the sisters inheritance dry, and a new modern, sleed hotel ran by world-famous hotel Anton Tisch opening up down the road. Not to mention competing with the Spanish womaniser Lucas Ruiz who is running the new Tisch hotel, the Herrick.(561 pages)

pada pendapat mummy yang baru baca separuh daripada buku,setakat ni citer dia ok la...tak membosankan sangat..ayat-ayat pun mudah untuk difahami..so untuk mummy yang bukan english expertise ni,buku ni layak untuk dibaca...
ok kawan-kawan..sesape yang berminat bolehla carik buku ni dikedai-kedai buku berdekatan..dan yang mummy syorkan ialah bookexcess di amcorp mall..harga yang sangat berpatutan...
