rating of Lucille Ball

This book was in great condition. I am completely satisfied with my purchase.

Lucy lives forever!

I have read many books on Lucille Ball. She is my idol and I love her with all my heart.This book is so good. It's very informative. It covers her life from her birth to her death in 1989, not 1986, as another reviewer put it. Someone said it didn't give much detail, which is not true at all. The end moved me to tears. Not just water in my eyes tears; real tears running down my face. I sobbed like a little baby. It doesn't go into specifics of Lucy and Desi's deaths. It tells how they died, but it leaves it at that,and in a way that's good.Lucy believed in privacy, as you can tell from her autobiography. This book is not an expose on the tabloid marraige of Lucille and Desi. If all you're looking for is gossip, then this is not for you. If you want an entertaining, informative outlook on the life of Lucille Ball, and I guess Desi Arnaz, then read this book. It's a real page turner. You won't want to put it down.
