Synopsis;

Joan Rivers was known all over the world-from the Palace Theater to Buckingham Palace, from the bright lights of Las Vegas to the footlights of Broadway, from days of talkies to hosting talk shows. But there was only one person who knew Joan intimately, one person who the authorities would call when she got a little out of hand. Her daughter and best friend, Melissa
 
Thoughts;

I was actually surprised that I couldn’t put this book down. It was very well written and a great idea of Melissa’s childhood along with Joan’s rise to fame.

It was pretty tame and from the way Joan lived on-screen it was a refreshing surprise to hear how she lived off screen. That she raised her daughter to be a loving, caring, polite member of society!

I love books like this.
