Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: This is one of the most touching books I have read. It tells you everything you always wanted to know about America's favorite Talk Show Hostess. I reccomend this book to any who love The Howard Stern Show and also to those that hate it because it will give you a different perspective.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Publishing plans for BABA BOOEY: A LIFE have been canceled
Review: When it was released several years ago, QUIVERS: A LIFE, the autobiography of radio and television's "Howard Stern Show" member Robin Quivers, had a short life on the bookstore shelves.

QUIVERS: A LIFE seems to have met the same fate as the musical careers of the Stern Show's Stuttering John Melendez and Fred Norris: a quick exit to WhoCares?ville. Public interest in even the closest associates of Howard Stern proves limited if Stern himself does not participate in the project. Just because Miss Quivers' life is part of "The Howard Stern Show," that does not mean the public wants a book independent of Stern's involvement.

Even Billy West and Jackie Martling, the most talented performers to work with Howard Stern, have not reached anything resembling stardom. It seems the sum of the parts do not equal the whole Stern show.

I imagine book publishers canceled plans for BABA BOOEY: A LIFE after QUIVERS: A LIFE proved lifeless to the book-buying public.

Funny thing is, the well-written QUIVERS: A LIFE keeps the pages turning. Robin Quivers gives the blow-by-blow on her troubled childhood and the resulting tough adjustment she had as an adult. And of course, the anecdotes about working with Howard Stern also keep it interesting.
