I take it you were a big fan of Jackie Susann’s “Valley of the Dolls” ?

Stand up straight. I think the cover of that or the book had a bunch of pills? And probably more garbage. It never appealed to me in any form, book, movie, whatever. I remember the author's, hell with the feminine form, name from that era though.

Went and looked. No pills. Don't know what it was about it that made me not want to read it. Also managed to avoid Phillip Roth's Portnoy's Complaint a friend was reading. There was one worse one. Fortunately I didn't get hooked on any of it. I don't think. Am not drawn into discussions about same either except possibly in a Christian moral context.
