Title: The Book
of Joan: Tales of Mirth, Mischief and Manipulation
Author: Melissa
Rivers
Genre: Non-Fiction,
Humor, Memoir
Time: 4.8 hours
First off, I love, love, love Joan Rivers. I know her sense of humor was not for everyone,
but loved it. I used to watch her on Fashion
Police. I was so sad when she passed
away. Fashion Police is not the same
anymore. So when I saw this book, there
was no question that I would read it.
The book tries to be funny.
I mean Joan Rivers = funny. When
it tries to be funny, sometimes it is, but sometimes it’s not. I know, it sounds confusing. But I think you’ll get it if you read the
book.
So yeah, if you got this book expecting to be laughing out
loud (like I did with Chelsea Handler’s books) every few pages, you’ll be
disappointed. But what I liked most
about this is that it gave me an insight on what Joan Rivers was like as
mother, wife and friend. You’d get a
glimpse of what she was like before she was famous. She was a lady before her time.
