Why read it?
1 author picked Goldenseal as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was immediately drawn into this story’s premise: former best friends who haven’t seen each other in forty years reuniting in Los Angeles for one night of conversation, a night that will leave each woman changed forever.
Lacey and Edith met and bonded as young girls on the East Coast, but it is Hollywood that tore them apart. I am always interested in stories of female friendship, when ties are strongest, and when they are severed. And, of course, the introduction of a movie star love interest is bound to test even the tightest bond.
This story is especially poignant…
From Katherine's list on novels set in the orbit of Hollywood or Broadway.
