Jeanne CooperReseñas

My only complaint is that this was too short! It was entertaining and endearing. I loved all her stories and wish there were many more. She was friends with so many famous and interesting people, it would have been amazing to hear all her stories with every one of them. It's so sad that we'll never get more stories from her wonderful life.

Not Young, Still Restless by Jeanne Cooper and Lindsay Harrison is a great memoir for the fans of The Young and the Restless soap opera and Katherine Chancellor. She was born in 1928 to part-Cherokee parents, and was the youngest of three children. My mother has watched the show since before I was born, and I remember the fateful episode in which Mrs. C. drove her husband off a cliff in a drunken stupor — I was one. Yes, this show has been in my life for a very long time.

Cooper infuses her memoir with honesty, but also refuses to tell stories that are not her to tell. She may be harsh on her ex-husband, but once you read about his antics, it’s hard not to see why she’d still not be his biggest fan. However, she does admit that her relationship with her husband did beget her some wonderful and talented children — Corbin Bernsen, Collin, and Caren.
