My complaint about this book is that is seems like she just sat down one day and wrote it all down. I guess I like either reading a biography from an outsider's view... all facts with little fiction to cloud the story... or an autobiography where the author lets you in as if you are one of her best girlfriends and you are kind of dishing. This is neither. It's almost too cold at times and then sometimes too much detail about how nervous she was about a certain audition.

Hepburns voice comes through loud and clear. While she was undoubtedly a demanding diva in her time, at the same time she was insecure and vulnerable. Terrific reading!

The late Katherine Hepburn reflects on the events, people and places that had shaped her life. Illustrated with 165 photographs, many of which have never been published before. A beautiful book!
