They were two of the most talented beauties Hollywood ever produced the elegant Joan Crawford, a former chorus girl who shot through the ranks at MGM, and the brash, tempestuous Bette Davis, a Broadway star notorious for refusing to bow to the studio bosses. Their work together in the hit film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? sowed the seeds for a mutual hatred that would consume their lives. As each fading star tried to outshine the other, lives were upended and reputations were destroyed. Glamorous, merciless, and cruel, their feud became the stuff of legends.
Based on interviews the author conducted with both actresses and more than a decade of research, Bette & Joan shows the hard-drinking, hard-fighting duo at their best and worst. The epic story of these dueling divas is hilarious, monstrous, and tragic. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford are portrayed by Susan Sarandon and Jessica Lange in the Ryan Murphy TV series Feud.

I loved reading this. Every moment with this book was delicious dishy fun. Joan Crawford and Bette Davis were powerful, talented actresses, but also completely selfish, manipulative, and destructive. Like the best of enemies, they were too much alike. This book is full of hilarious anecdotes that you will enjoy sharing with your friends. The only thing missing from the book was the story of Joan's famous last words. Apparently, she said to her maid of 30+ years, "Don't you DARE ask God to help me!"Product details

Bette Joan The Divine Feud eBook Shaun Considine Reviews
I saw the miniseries starting Susan Sarandon and Jessica Lange on FX and I had to get this book. It was an informative book on their rivalry. The sad part was at the twilight of their careers there were fewer roles for them. I highly recommend this book for Bette Davis and Joan Crawford fans as well as cinema lovers.
What a laugh out loud, entertaining book. Tons of insider scoop and detail. The war of comments between the two stars was hilarious and illuminating. I always wondered what the set of What Ever Happened To Baby Jane was like during shooting, given the two stars history of professional jealousy. Ultimately, the ladies were more alike than either of them would ever have admitted.
What a great fun read...all the fire of each actress is on full display. I've always wondered what the truth was behind the feud and now I know.
Purchased as a gift for my mom, and she read it in one day! Now, I'm looking forward to reading it!
A lot of ego and pettiness on each part. I believe Joan really tried to get along with Davis, but Davis was untrusting of Joan's motives.
I look at this book as setting the record straight. Period.
I also, while reading it, felt compassion for both because they were in a lot of emotional pain.
I felt Davis didn't give Crawford a chance to show her true acting talent on the set.
In a way, I don't blame Joan for being bitter at her rival during those years.
Just because Joan was generous with gifts didn't mean Davis had to be nasty with her.
I just felt Davis was largely responsible for this feud.
I watched the TV series and was a bit disappointed, so was wondering how close this book was to the series. I loved this book! Only the cover of the book resembled the series. It was an easy read and one of those books that was hard to put down! It's a rather large book with over 800 pages but it's so well written, it went very fast! If you have any interest at all in either of these two classic Hollywood actresses, you definitely need to read it!
Just finished the book. I learned so much about old Hollywood and found it so interesting. Reading about Joan Crawford was actually inspiring to me even though she was full of flaws. The woman had class, a strong work ethic, and the way she upstaged Bette Davis on Oscar night was brilliantly evil. Both women are to be admired for their strength, genius, and resilience in an era when woman were not supposed to be so bold or powerful. I can't say that either were without their personality problems but it is amazing how much they had in common.
