I Can Only Imagine: A Memoir
I Can Only Imagine: A Memoir

Review:I saw the movie before purchasing the book. I was disappointed with the book. I was hoping to read about Bart's life in greater detail and the struggles he went through as a child. The book was more about his travels with the band. Not what I expected Read more

Just One More Thing
Just One More Thing

Review:LOVE Peter Falk, and this book is just fabulous. Short, entertaining, often laugh-out-loud funny vignettes of his life experiences as an actor, producer, artist, and more. Falk was such an enormous artistic, creative talent who quite simply knew how to tell a story. LOVED this book. Read more

I Walked the Line: My Life with Johnny
I Walked the Line: My Life with Johnny

Review:Told with class. After reading this book I am more in touch with the real truth and not some fabricated Hollywood tale of romance (between June and Johnny). This may be only my opinion but bottom line is Vivian was a first class lady that was above the nonsense and illicit behavior she was subjected to during her marriage. Some people party like rock stars ( or country stars) their entire life. I would think a life lived in a such a way would be nearly a complete blur and much regret would follo... Read more

H. P. Lovecraft: The Complete Collection

Review:If you have not read Lovecraft before then it may be hard to get into the language. No one speaks in the manner of the narrators of his stories or books anymore and sometimes, that's a shame. Sometimes, though, the flowery language hinders the stories and makes what should be a scary descent into madness a tedious grind through language. Overall, though, Lovecraft is an important literary figure and pretty much created the super weird dear god I can't fathom what that thing was that went bump... Read more

and the Dawn of the Modern Woman - Breakfast at Tiffany's

Review:This book is an entertaining look at the making of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" that has you feeling like you're on the scene. However, there are a couple of minor problems, which is why I gave it four stars instead of five. First, the photographs included are, in my opinion, poor choices. In particular, the photo of Patricia Neal shows barely half of a side view of her; she's almost not in the photo at all. Second, it would have been very helpful to have an appendix that told what happened to t... Read more

The Time of My Life

Review:I always enjoy Patrick Swayze movies. He played so many different roles so well. I also enjoy the Hollywood legend stories too. The book combines many stories as well as life struggles that the couple went through. Well written so even I could follow it. definitely worth a read. Read more

'Tis Herself: An Autobiography
'Tis Herself: An Autobiography

Review:Strangely, after reading her autobiography, I find Maureen a bit unlikable. Hard to get over her dysfunctional relationship with John Ford and her sense of morality stemming from her "strong" Catholic faith. I get this feeling there is a lot more going on in the background than she was ever going to disclose. Read more

The Autobiography of James T. Kirk
The Autobiography of James T. Kirk

Review:I liked this account, as JJ Abrams has taken some creative left turns with the characters. I wished the author could have written the book longer to delve deeper into Kirk's character. Or maybe that was the idea to show you Kirk wasn't the deepest emotionally...... Read more
