"This assignment is a two-parter, ladies: Start by setting up a lounge chair in your living room, slathering on some coconut-scented sunscreen, and cracking open Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susann. What better way to feel like you&amp;#x27;re on vacation than by reading a trashy novel in a faux-tropical setting? Once you&amp;#x27;ve gotten to know these characters, queue up your DVD player and watch them come to life on the small screen. This one&amp;#x27;s got it all--Patty Duke and Sharon Tate, amazing fashion on the sidewalks of New York and the Hollywood Hills, a glimpse into the lives of the rich and famous, cigarettes, psychiatric hospitals, European royalty, drugs, sex, cat fights... Check it out this weekend, and enjoy your little &amp;quot;staycation!&amp;quot; Have you guys read the book before?
