Up next from my bedside stack.
I keep thinking I‘ve read this, but I‘m not sure if I‘ve just seen and read enough bits about it that I think I‘ve read it. Oh well we shall see.

Non-fiction that reads like a thriller? True crime meets legal drama? An exploration of celebrity, beauty, scandal and feminism? Sign me up! This book has been on my #TBR for years and #bookspinBingo and @TheAromaofBooks finally got me to read it! And I‘m so glad I did! Highly recommend! #joyousjanuary @Andrew65

On my #tbr list...a silent film era actress and “it” girl, whose husband murdered her lover. Sounds like this true crime story has a little bit of something for everyone...#ASilentShout #OctoberXFiles

Crazeedi I read another book on this subject, a kinda different take. Her mother was the influence behind this, she pushed her daughter into terrible situation for fame. I cannot remember the name of that book but it was good. I'm adding 6y
Librarybelle @Crazeedi That sounds good too! If you remember the title, let me know! 6y
Reviewsbylola I remember really liking this one when I read it, but I remember very little about it. 6y
