Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disappointed
Review: I have been a big fan of MTM for as long as I can remember. She is truly an inspiring woman on and off the air. This book will be enjoyed by all. It was difficult to imagine Mary going through "hard" times after watching our Mary Richards (on T.V.) get through anything. She had many challenges throughout her life and it is sad that she portrayed a character on television that she always wanted to be in real life. It was a pleasure to read and it left me with more respect and admiration for Mary.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Superficial, yet interesting
Review: I read every word of this book (in about half an hour) and wish the white space at the end of two or three page "chapter" was filled and then some. This is an exceedingly superficial, detached treatment of very personal, sometimes revealing stuff. Yet why do I feel MTM managed to pull it off--telling me her secrets while keeping herself at armslength. Then again, she seems to keep at armslength from herself... There is information about The Dick Van Dyke show, the The MTM Show, MTM's alcoholism, diabetes, pregnancies and marriages, the deaths of her son, sister, and brother, her audience with the pope, her visit to Israel...all these things, yet not very much. Possibly one of the most fascinating lives in modern American entertainment, and so many details left out! Maybe Ms. Levine will write another book--maybe a book about each of the highlights (or lowlights) by themself.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Superficial, yet interesting
Review: Loved the book. Made extraordinary change in my life. I read the hardback edition upon its release and have been a vegetarian, animal sensitive person since. ANYONE WITH ACCESS TO MS. MOORE-- CAN'T she do something about the fact that on repeats of mtm show, mary richards is still scene throwing meat in her shopping cart. this small editing might send a major message (longtime fans will notice) and can go a long way in helping people understand the cruelty and inhumanity of how we have traditionally treated animals. would love to know if this can be done please e mail me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Good Read
Review: Mary has a flair for writing which makes this book more interesting that your average celeb biography. Her life is fascinating, and she spares nothing in this engrossing book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a tell all book
Review: Mary Tyler Moore displays a great talent for writing. She holds nothing back in her book, and is brutally honest. I can't imagine a person being more honest with themselves than she is in her autobiography.
It is a great read for all MTM fans.
