Goodbye, Janette

I don t even know what to say This was experience Being a huge Fawlty Towers fangirl, I ve always wanted to try a book by Harold Robbins Basil s disparaging comments were than enough to arouse my curiosity re this prolific author of glittery, trashy schlock And boy howdy, Janette is terrible If this wasn t by an established author BWAHAHA D it would never have been endorsed by a respectable publisher Supposing Robbins had used a pseudo Dick B Hugest, perhaps this POS would ve been passed down t [...]

The sex scenes were very disturbing and violent, and have probably scarred me for life Keep this book away from the reach of nosy teenagers

Harold Robbins writes the best dirty romance books ever

I wish I could say that Harold Robbins had a glorious career But the truth of the matter iseaze factor 2017

A lot of people have reviewed this book over the years and the consensus seems to be split between a well written novel with plenty of erotica and a trashy porn story masquerading as a novel.Harold Robbins in my opinion has provided us with an excellent piece of writing in this novel.To look at Goodbye Janette solely as a good yarn or a smut fest is doing both the writer and the reader a grave injustice.There is in my opinion an element of this book that goes far beyond wealth and sex.Harold Rob [...]

exciting novel, catches the attention It sheds light on sexual abuse and how Tanya and her daughters have the same character traits but with a slight variation.

Holy merde Eurotrash shenanigans abound in this saga of the rich and witless It s a 2.5 star read from the king of commercial fiction back in the day That is, 2.5 stars for what it is, not as compared to anything by Flaubert or Dostoevsky No one in the book has the depth of a Ritz cracker, but you don t turn to Harold Robbins for enlightenment on the human condition You turn to him when you re looking for a dirty read with a glossy cover I d heard this is one of the trashier novels in the Robbin [...]

This was actually the first book by Harold Robbins I ever read and now I have all his books in Danish Truly an amazing author, and the graphic nature truly explains just how lust centered some people can be when it comes to sex

As opposed to my previous date with Mr Robbins with Dreams Die First, this book at least had a coherent plot Starts out with some WAY over the top scenes that still baffled me this was Harold Robbins s last NY Times Bestseller how don t ask this kind of stuff would likely get published on a whim today, but wouldn t be able to harness a spot on ANY bestseller list After a promising 60 pages or so, the novel then just fizzles out completelyardroom meeting BS and business talk BS offer up a great [...]

On the cover it says, More Daring, More Shocking, More Deeply Erotic Than Anything Ever Written I was intrigued What was shocking in 1981 Would it be like Anais Nin shocking for the time, but not so much now No This shit shocked me The story didn t really progress further than sex scene after violent sex scene until midway through the book Then it became about the greed and hedonism of the very rich Which, frankly, has been told before Plenty of times It worked though The shock was there Even fo [...]

These Harold Robbins books belonged to my mother, she was a fan, but only let me read a few because of the sexual content I LOVED them, I wish she still had them I can t even remember exact titles any.

No one writes like this man He should be the sort of god of modern trash His books literally take you to wherever he is You get so caught up in his story telling i read this as a teenager in paper back and as an adult I bought it on Kindle Its a great work of modern fiction

I loved this book over the years I have reread this book one of his best

Hot sexy but not the best

Some says it s brutal, but I like it

This book was one of his best It took the reader into the soul of dysfunction, and the results He is an author that loves power

wow

Hot, steamy, adult sexy

My favorite cheesy 80 s excess story Harrold Robbins at his naughtiest best

Este es un libro que me dej mi pareja con la frase Es uno de los libros malos que me gustan.S , no se puede decir que Adi s, Janette sea muy bueno Hombre, tampoco es que que sea malo de llorar, al menos me ha entretenido Seg n me han contado, Harold Robbins emplea una f rmula muy parecida para todos sus libros se or que acumula en sus manos mucho poder y dinero de una gran corporaci n, cosa que le proporciona gran atractivo con las mujeres vamos, que folla mucho.En este, supongo que por el propi [...]

A mixed cart.Early in this book I thought it was a 5 star read I left 1 star.Let me explain I great this book when it was for sale on at.99 in great excitement to get the work of an author I knew to have been major selling author on his day I have several paperbacks by Harold Robbins sitting in my bookshelves and it never read This special deal was a perfect opportunity for me to discover my first ever read of Harold Robbins, to discover what made him so successful.I did discover why Yes, he has [...]

anche i ricchi amano il sadomasocon buona pace delle 50 sfumature di noiathrillerino senza infamia e senza lodeintreccio messo in piedi come viene,col gusto di infilare scene sadomaso ogni tre pagine solo con l obiettivo di stravolgere il lettore, se si tiene conto dell epoca in cui stato scritto, forse potrebbe strappare qualche perplessit , ma adesso fa soltanto sorridere

I AM TRYING TO LEARN FROM THE WAYS OF BESTSELLING TRASH AND SO I DOWNLOADED A HAROLD ROBBINS BOOK CALLED GOODBYE, JEANETTE MEME, IT WAS LIKE READING MR GARRISON S ATTEMPT AT WRITING A ROMANCE NOVEL PENISES, PENISES EVERYWHERE RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE.

Read the blurb and thought I would give this book a shot Very encompassing storyline and the characters Some elements were unexpected and dark Altogether a very seamless read that keeps you captivated.

This is a reread for me I started it as a Valentines Day read I ve always loved Harold Robbins and read all his all stuff in my early twenties I just had trouble getting into it this time around I blame the Internet nothing shocks me any or maybe it s that I m ten years older now.

p bir roman karakterler tutars z, neyi ni in yapt klar belli de il konu yok , her ey b t n olarak anlams z sevi me sahneleri aptalca, di er yorumlarda yaz ld gibi brutal hissettiren bir ey de yok sanki bir adam n karalay verdi i fantezi zinciri okumaya hi bir ekilde de mez.

Extremely graphic first it was a bit disturbing, but overall a good novel.

INTERESTING

very explicit in 80 s Standard,but not so much now Although I feel the story is not fully complete There are no closure to other characters story.

This book loses one star for the ending.
