A review by mslingercarreer
Blonde by Joyce Carol Oates
5.0
I'm a sucker for stories, fiction or nonfiction, about the Golden Age of Hollywood. So this was an easy 5 stars for me not just because of the genre, but the story told and the authors writing style.
While this is a fictionalized and simplified biography of Marilyn Monroe, it encompasses the real life of a Hollywood starlet in the 40s and 50s; specifically those who were labeled sexy.
If you're fan of [b:The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo|32620332|The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo|Taylor Jenkins Reid|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1664458703l/32620332._SY75_.jpg|46885151] you'll enjoy this. And vice versa.
