Love, Lucy

When I received the paperback book the front and back cover were torn and falling off …the pages were yellowed but legible unfortunately, I won’t be passing this book along due to it’s condition.

So very nice to have her book in her own words. I would recommend it to anyone who loves the show. She was one of a kind and one of my first memories as a child still holding my baby bottle. She was like part of my own family. Get the book! You couldn't help but love it!

Fun, interesting, and brilliant. I've heard now Lucille impressed so many people with her intelligence and reading her words makes it clear why.

This is a very good biography and the good part is that she is the one telling the story. I wish I could know all her life by reading this book, but it is not a complete biography. It tells part of her life, but not all of her life. I recommend it because you can know about her career and marriage through her point of view.

Fast read. Could not put the book down. Love Lucy by Lucille Ball is an interesting subject to read.

I loved this book! Ever since I saw my first episode of I Love Lucy, I've been fascinated with Lucille Ball. I just had to know more about her. I found "Love, Lucy" in a store one day and I begged my mom to buy it for me. Well, she did, and I loved every minute of reading it. It's like she's talking one-on-one with you in a way. In "Love, Lucy", Lucy talks about her marriages, her children, her family, and her work. Although alot of details are left out (mainly because she didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings), the descriptions of the events in her life are amazing. My mother couldn't pry me away from reading this book with a crowbar, and she still can't whenever I re-read it. I was also overcome with emotion at some points in reading this wonderful memoir. The way she talked about her love for Desi Arnaz was so touching. I've never heard anything like it before. I started to sob a little when Lucy described the day she filed for divorce from Desi, and I'm not a big crier. It was so sad that everything happened the way it did, and that they couldn't work things out. I'm glad that she found happiness in her second marriage, though. I was also stunned when I learned that Lucy had hidden this for over thirty years until her children found it in with some old files about four years ago. Imagine writing something like this that you know everyone in the world is dying to read and then putting it away! Well, in a way I respect Lucy's decision, because I wouldn't want to hurt the feelings of any loved ones that were still alive that I had talked about. And sometime soon I am going to get a copy of "A Book", by Desi Arnaz, because after all there are two sides to every story. Before I go, I want to thank Lucy's children, Lucie Arnaz and Desi Arnaz Jr., for letting their mother's millions of fans take a peek inside of her private world. The book could have been easily just tucked back into the files and forgotten about. Taking it out and publishing it was great idea, and I know that no matter what, I'll always love Lucy.
