Rating: Summary: SUPERB AND WONDERFUL! Review: This book spoke to my heart and I thought it was wonderful and to the point. It showed how you have to take responsibility for what you are and the decisions you make. And also it showed how you can pick yourself up and move on and not have to be stuck in a rut. I encourage any and everyone to read, you'll learn things you never knew.
Rating: Summary: I could relate to this lady Review: This is a book that many divorce/step families could relate with. I was amazed to see that a movie star had the same feelings as I do in regards to step children. I am not alone!! I admire Suzanne for describing her inappropriate outburst and her feeling guilty afterweres. I t was impressive that she was sharing with us information that would make her look awful. The book inspire me to read her first book, "Keeping Secrets". My Dad is an acoholic too and maybe I act a certain way because off that too, if Suzanne Somers does.
Rating: Summary: What really happened to Miss Somers at "Three's Company"? Review: Was this book a rush job? One has to wonder if Crown printed this book to beat the publication of another behind-the-scenes book on "Three's Company" called "Come and Knock on Our Door," to be published in June by St. Martin's Press. That book apparently features interviews with Miss Somers and the rest of the show's cast and producers, giving significant emphasis to her relationships with John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt, her contract dispute, and her firing from "Three's Company."Miss Somers has definitely written a revealing book about her rise and fall and resurrection as a celebrity and maturing woman. But I wonder about her account of what happened on "Three's Company." She says all she did is ask for a raise and then missed two days work following an injury she'd sustained on "The Tonight Show." She says the producers all but eliminated her from the show at that point. But if memory serves me correctly, she missed more than one episode's taping before the producers reduced her role to a call-in scene at the end of the show. And I recall an article or two about her leaving mentioning the strained relations between the cast began when Miss Somers appeared center-stage on a "Three's Company" "Newsweek" cover. Yet she doesn't even mention this in her book. I'm anxious to see how accurate and/or revealing "Come and Knock on Our Door" is compared to Miss Somers' version of what went down on "Three's Company" as told in "After the Fall." And I can't wait to see what Joyce DeWitt and John Ritter -- who aren't portrayed so lovingly in "After the Fall" -- have to say about Miss Somers.
