Great read.

xcellent read for fans of Drew Barrymore. This book shows the hard times she has had in her life and the new beginning that have been brought about. Drew is a very talented actor, and I'm sure she will be around for a very long time. BTW, Gerry Hixon...after reading your message I checked out your other reviews, I must say I actually laughed out loud...funny guy!

I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN. 13th april 2004.

As been a fan of drew barrymore, i could read anything about her and it would amuse me for a long time. I don't normally read books, although there is an odd occasion. I ordered this book 3 days before it came, and as soon as i had it, i read at least an hour of it [past half way OF THE BOOK.]It tells you about her when she was young, her family, her boyfriends that she as gone out with and her career. It is very interesting to read and, and as soon as you start reading it, you probably won't want to put it down. I got so interested in it and i didn't realise that i had got half way through. If you like her this book is perfect for you.

I love Drew. Very positive person throughout all her battles. So I had to get this book. I loved everything about it except it did not discuss her being bisexual at all. Minor disappointment, but its very informative and positive towards Drew and her life.

Great story!

Drew Barrymore is an inspiration to me. I've followed her entire career, seen all her movies, and read almost every single article about her. This is a great book for a great star.
