Pretty good memoir by this actress. She is quite frank about her alcoholism and marriage problems, etc. She also had diabetes. An aloof father led her to seek validation from others all through her life. It also has some good anecdotes. ( )

I have always enjoyed Mary and we delighted to have this person glimse of her inner thoughts. I thought it was well written and honest. ( )

Mary's book is laid out chronologically. She doesn't sidestep any of the tough or ugly parts of her life, having come to terms with such things over the years. She has lost her niece, her son, and both of her parents, as well as having gone through two divorces. 'AfterAll' she appears to come out of it okay. ( )

The rating I gave this book is due to the fact that I thought it needed a better editor/writer. I felt she spoke heartfelt truths about her life but the book lacked cohesion. ( )
