Reviews"Decades ahead of its time . . . Mesmerizing . . . The equation of emotional dependencies with drug addiction in one comprehensive personality disorder is, if anything, more chic today than in Susann's time; also prescient is the book's protofeminism."--Mim Udovitch, The Village Voice Literary Supplement "I couldn't believe these weren't real girls because I know them. Maddeningly sexy. I wish I had written it."--Helen Gurley Brown "Magnetic . . . [Susann]'s a natural storyteller . . . Valley is the kind of book that most of its readers cannot put down."--Nora Ephron "Jackie, it seemed, understood by instinct that her readers were ready for the raw side of love . . . for a franker sexuality and a tougher kind of story-for romance with tears and oral sex."--Michael Korda, The New Yorker "One of the steamiest novels ever written."--Earl Wilson
