The Book of Joan: Tales of Mirth, Mischief, and Manipulation

Title: The Book of Joan: Tales of Mirth, Mischief, and Manipulation
Author: Melissa Rivers

Melissa Rivers, Joan's daughter, shares stories, anecdotes, thoughts and observations of her mother's life. I felt that the book did not do justice to her Mom's incredible life and career. Joan Rivers was a trailblazer for women both in the entertainment world and in the business world. A book that highlighted her many accomplishments, rather than resorting to one-liners, jokes and "bad" language would have been more fitting.

Non-Fiction; rated 1 out of 5
