All the Stars in the Heavens by Adriana Trigiani is historical fiction based on the Golden Years of Hollywood in the 1930s. Trigiani reimagines the love affair between Clark Gable and Loretta Young and the daughter they had together that they hid from the world.
I enjoy Trigiani's novels, her characters, her storytelling and all the rich details she fills in the scenes with. This is not my favorite of her books, however. Much of the way she painted the characters was not believable to me and I wasn't drawn in the way I usually am to her stories.
Trigiani fans will probably enjoy it, but if you are new to this author, start with one of her earlier books.
