Good Housekeeping Magazine

A truly exceptional novel about the vagaries of female friendship and creative ambition, L.A. Women fizzes with energy and intrigue. Berman's Los Angeles is a glittering, ecstatic party, full of fascinating, charismatic figures that made me want to linger even as the lights began to dim. Much like its subject matter, L.A. Women is nothing short of iconic

Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters

Ella Berman's writing is transportive, hypnotic, and addictive. I fell wholeheartedly in love with the intensity of these L.A. Women and the way Berman unabashedly explores the deep, glimmering, and turbulent waters of artistic ambition amid the alluring backdrop of 1960's Los Angeles. This novel reads like a spell, a California fever dream, and a risk taking excavation of the moments that most define us. L.A. Women is phenomenal

Chelsea Bieker, author of Madwoman

An unflinching exploration into the emotional depths of artists, LA Women is as soulful and scintillating as Laurel Canyon itself

Rachel Koller Croft, USA Today bestselling author of Stone Cold Fox

From the very first pages of Ella Berman's L.A. Women, I was hooked. A tantalizing balance of mysterious and eerie, glittering and evocative, this novel skillfully explores the depths and complexity of artistic ambition and female friendship - all set against the shimmering backdrop of 1960's (and 1970's) Los Angeles. There's something so transportive about Ella's writing, about the way she captures parties in Laurel Canyon as palpably as the emotional push-pull between two writers and friends; it'll have you hanging on every word and turning the pages at record pace. This is a can't-put-down read
