Ruthless Women is this year's must-read
Notebook Magazine
This thrilling novel is written by soap queen Melanie Blake, who is one of the most successful soap star agents of all time, and the woman behind some of soap's biggest comebacks. Now, for the first time ever, she's writing about her experience behind the camera
Inside Soap
If there's one book you're going to read in 2021, make it Ruthless Women. Utterly addictive from its opening chapters, the technically fictional novel (which draws on author Melanie Blake's real-life experience as an agent to the stars) is unpredictable, unputdownable and unique to anything I have ever read. I've read a lot of books in my 28 years! It's clearer to me than ever when an author has put their heart and soul into a project. This is exactly what Blake has achieved and for that reason alone, this book deserves all the success in the world
Female First
It had us rooting for its irrepressible, beautiful, ambitious cast of women – each completely unstoppable in their fight against injustice
Yours
More glamour, divas and bitch-fights than an episode of Ru Paul's Drag Race – what's not to love!
Absolute Radio
Melanie Blake is to the UK TV industry what Jackie Collins was to Hollywood. Both using insider industry knowledge to write authentic stories, and both challenging the double standards faced by women in the entertainment industry
TV Choice
The best book of the year so far, Ruthless Women is the perfect antidote to lockdown, a high-octane escapist binge-read that will have you up all night!
Take A Break
Melanie Blake has spent over two decades working behind the scenes in showbiz and has based her new novel Ruthless Women on what really goes on behind the scenes on the set of a UK TV drama when the cameras stop rolling
