I hated this book! It was very slanted towards Desi Arnaz, which is fine. From everything I've heard, he really was a fantastic business man.
But most of what was said about Lucille Ball was not very pleasant. Yes, there were some comments about how loyal she could be. But for the most part, it portrayed (at least in my opinion) as a foul-mouthed, cruel woman who didn't treat people very well.
I'm sure there was some truth in there, but I felt like the whole thing was geared to trash Ms. Ball.
