My first real book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
My Dad let me buy this book in the 60's at a used book bin ouside the Playboy Club in Boston. I was 11. This was the first book I ever bought and I was thrilled. I got it home and Mom grabbed it out of my hand and gave Dad a "look"...Jacqueline Suzanne?? I will never forget this book. And I'm buying it again because I have no idea where it is now. I think I read it about 5 times in my life. Love it. A funny story that made me want a poodle so badly my parents went nuts. They got a German Shepherd instead and I never forgave them!
still a fresh, funny book

what can you say about this book? jackie escaped from her novels of sex, seconals, and scandal twice, and the results were in my opinion, her best efforts: YARGO and EVERY NIGHT JOSEPHINE! this book was funny, easy to read, and reread, and just plain entertainment. ms susann never aspired to be a shakespeare or hemingway, and her delightful books should be appreciated for what they are. personally, i think its sad that her life was cut short, i would love to have seen my collection of her books growing every year as my stephen king collection currently does.
Update on Josephine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Many years ago, I came across "Every Night Josephine" by adult novelist Jacqueline Susann. While I considered myself a "cat person" I couldn't help but get caught up in the lives of this adorable French poodle and her author-owner. The way the author laid out the story and related the experiences of this pampered pet as she hobnobbed with showbiz celebrities was rich in detail and description. I could actually picture the little dog chowing down on Hershey Kisses in a New York City penthouse or upstaging her mistress during a television appearance. THE END.
It is the only book I read over and over again

It is the only book I read over and over again and I find more to enjoy each time I read it. I recently found a hard cover book after months of searching as my paperback was getting very tattered. I am not a dog lover per se, but I love the way she tells of the trials of having a pet and especially in New York City.
This is one of the best all around dog stories ever written.

I always recommend this book to first time dog-owners. It is delightful as well as insightful and I am devasted that I lost my copy of the book. I have re-read it many many times. It is the story of the authors dog -- a poodle named Josephine. Susann's stories about their life centering around this small bundle of fur are very funny and poignant
