Congratulations to HFPA member Gabrielle Donnelly on the success of her fifth novel, THE LITTLE WOMEN LETTERS, which was published on June 7 by the Touchstone imprint of Simon & Schuster.

THE LITTLE WOMEN LETTERS, a modern day homage, set in contemporary London, to Louisa May Alcott’s beloved classic LITTLE WOMEN, is hitting best seller lists in Britain and America alike and winning overwhelmingly enthusiastic reviews from both print outlets and blogs, with THE WASHINGTON POST  declaring it “could be just the perfect pool-side read” (June 18) and a chorus of praise on goodreads hailing it as “captivating,” “FANTASTIC!” (capitals and screamer the reviewer’s own) and “a joy.” Gabrielle Donnelly was born and brought up in London and has lived in Los Angeles since 1980.  As well as writing novels, she contributes to The Daily Mail, Hello!, Saga, and Women’s Weekly. She has been a member of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association since 1984.
