PARADE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR
A
NEW YORK POST BEST BOOK OF THE WEEK

In her first novel inspired by a true story, Jane Green re-imagines the life of troubled icon Talitha Getty in this transporting story from a forgotten chapter of the Swinging '60s


From afar Talitha's life seemed perfect. In her twenties, and already a famous model and actress, she moved from London to a palace in Marrakesh, with her husband Paul Getty, the famous oil heir. There she presided over a swirling ex-pat scene filled with music, art, free love and a counterculture taking root across the world.

When Claire arrives in London from her small town, she never expects to cross paths with a woman as magnetic as Talitha Getty. Yearning for the adventure and independence, she's swept off to Marrakesh, where the two become kindred spirits. But beneath Talitha's glamourous facade lurks a darkness few can understand. As their friendship blossoms and the two grow closer, the realities of Talitha's precarious existence set off a chain of dangerous events that could alter Claire's life forever.

It had potential.

This started strong, but the heart of the story was eventually lost. Too many characters for those of us who didn’t know the rockstars of the sixties and seventies.

Oh, the 60’s!

Take a trip to Marakesh and the exotic sensual scents, tastes and lives of the rich and famous. Jane Green mesmerized me from start to finish.

Food for thought

Fun story to listen to as sometimes there is a lot we don’t know about our Mother’s life before we called them Mom

Why?

I’m trying to remember why I bought this book, assume it was a daily deal. It in no way parallels my favorite genre - mystery and thriller. It was OK, but so far removed from what I am used to, that a true review would not be possible.

Immerse yourself in the 1960’s…

I LOVED this book! The story was a fun and wonderful journey into mid-late 60’s. The counterculture, the groovy fashion, the music, the freedom, the experiences of living life in all its overindulgence! It was such a fun trip! If you enjoy the 60’s vibe, you will love this story!!

Sister Stardust! The sixties! I was never there!

One of the best books I have read in a long time. Captures you and keeps you thinking even after it’s end! Five stars
