Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Estee Lauder and Gloria Downing both came from money, but both families had lost their fortunes. Gloria's family lost their money when her father was arrested for a Ponzi scheme. That is when Gloria changed her name because of the stigma her name held. Both women had to work now, but the only difference was that Estee was ambitious, and Gloria had no skills and wasn't a go getter. Actually Gloria didn't know how to do anything - she had never worked a day in her life. The women met while Gloria was a shampoo girl in the shop where Estee had her side shop of creams. They worked together for a while, but Estee went her way and Gloria finally got a position as a shopgirl in Saks Fifth Avenue where she used to shop and spend her father's money. We follow both women as they make their way on their own even though Estee was married and had a child. It was fun joining both women and spending their days with them and learning about their lives during this era. FIFTH AVENUE GLAMOUR GIRL is another entertaining, well-researched read by Ms. Rosen. Fans of Ms. Rosen, cosmetic lines, this era, women succeeding, and name dropping will enjoy this book. 5/5 This book was given to me by the publisher via NetGalley for an honest review.
