Summary: Fun read
Review: That's Boomer! This book, if taken less seriously than the press and the Yankees did, is very enjoyable. Its hilarious! Wells' anecdotes are so colorful and told in a way that it seems like he's sitting right next to you. Recommended stories: Wells vs Cito Gaston
Cone and the cell phone
Wells and COne in drag
Wells on Marge Schott
Drunken Perfect Game This book is PURE LOCKER ROOM TALK! (and all this coming form a Mets fan!)

Summary: Boomer !!
Review: This book is a welcome relief from the cookie-cutter politically correct cloned figures that appear in professional sports stories today. David shares his heartbreaks, trials and tribulations, as well as his triumphs in this book that will mostly have you doubled up with laughter... Discover:
* Who has the hardest head in baseball. *What the wizened guru-like manager, Sparky Anderson and teammate/buddy Kirk Gibson, did to completely turn David's attitude around and give him the winning edge. *Where the city is with the worst baseball fans and sportswriters. *How Boomer converts manager Joe Torre from an pop contemporary music fan (think Sinatra, Como, Liza and Sammy) into a heavy metal head-banger.

Summary: ENTERTAINING FOR EVERYONE/BETTER FOR BASEBALL FANS
Review: This book provides one player's uncensored look at the game of baseball and his very personal investment in the sport. David "Boomer" Wells is despised by some, loved by others and entertaining for all! His stories are laugh-out-loud funny, often heart-warming, curiously straightforward and undeniably HIS! Chris Kreski captures Boomer's voice and when the reader hears it, he cannot help but feel like one of Boomer's buddies laughing along with him and enjoying the ride! Read it! You'll see!

Summary: This is a good book
Review: This book really gives you a good idea about the life of David "Boomer" Wells. Some remarks are very humorous and enjoyable. Even the languege that is used makes me think to myself "God, this really sounds like David Wells"

Summary: Going to the Wells once too often
Review: This book represents all that is wrong with the New York Yankees and all that is wrong with baseball. Pure egotistical drivel by an ignorant man. Literary gruel that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. As a palate cleanser, read THE LITTLE RED SOX BOOK by Bill "Spaceman" Lee, the antithesis of Yankeeism, and a man who reflects and embodies the pure joy of baseball. A ton of laughs( like having Babe Ruth stay in Boston and Ted Williams killing Hitler with a line drive!!) for those who can read and chew gum at the same time.

Summary: BOOMER BUSTS THE BIGS
Review: This book reveals all about one man's experience of major league baseball. It is greatly entertaining, and a real antidote to the antiseptic, `look at me I'm a hero,' sports bios. Give us more books like this one that speak genuinely. Bravo, Boomer!

Summary: I LOVED it
Review: This has to be the funniest, smartest, most entertaining baseball book I've read in a LONG time. It's really honest, and fun. You'll probably like it even if you're not a Yankee fan - or maybe even if you're a Yankee hater. It's got a TON of amazing stories, and inside information - read the parts about Rookie Ball and the Winter Leagues in South America - they're both really funny.

Summary: VERY Entertaining!!!!
Review: This is an incredibly entertaining book. David Wells has a very funny style of telling stories and his personality comes through very well. He gives you an inside look into MLB but unlike most players, he talks about everything--the good and the bad. Forget about the 'controversy' surrounding the book, it's just a good, fun read whether those controversial statements are in it or not. I would give it only 4 stars but gave it 5 because I saw that someone gave it 1 star just because he was a Red Sox fan.

Summary: Perfect He's Not
Review: this is an interesting read, but if i had my "druthers", i would have preferred it if DW had left out the early chapters describing his youth, minor league experiences, etc. its important to remember that this is not social commentary, its a behind the scenes book about baseball - written by, arguably, the most colorful individual on the diamond today. if you like books that explore the "wild side" of sports life, you won't be disappointed here. if your after one that chronicles the day to day grind of an average ballplayer, replete with all the detail - this one isn't for you. also, this isn't a "yankee" book, so if you're a "pinstripe" hater you'll enjoy it too. don't expect much more than the meandering recollections of one of baseball's throwback heroes. you'll also learn that, despite the publicity that depicts wells as a party animal supremo, he is also a disciplined competitor who has endured his share of pain and hard work.
