Review: The Chelsea Girls

The Chelsea Girls The Chelsea Girls by Fiona Davis
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I kept thinking I had read this before, but I searched lists of books set in the famous NYC hotel and none of the titles looked familiar. Hmm.

Anyway, this novel tells the tale of two women who befriend each other overseas in WWII as they are performing for the troops. One ends up a playwright, the other a famous movie/tv star. Their friendship is troubled, of course, and the whole Red Scare/Hollywood thing is involved.

I didn't connect to the Maxine at all, but maybe we're supposed to hate her? And even Hazel ticked me off because I didn't think she would fall for Charlie.
