pretty interesting story of desi and lucy. they were both never as successful. reading interrupted while i was in nyc. ( )

I was disappointed in this book. I like Lucille Ball; I remember when she was accused of being "red" probably in 1952-53. She was a great comedienne. If only this book were as great as she. There is too much detail about every movie she was in-most of them minor movies. It only gets interesting once we get to the I LOVE LUCY show.
Others seem to like it more than I. You will have to decide for yourself. It is well written if you can slog through the details. ( )

I learned a lot about Lucy, Ricky and even Cuba from this book. It was interesting. ( )
