Book Reviews of Home: A Memoir of My Early Years
Book Review: After "Home" by Julie Andrews, we eagerly await Volume 2 of this great star's autobiography!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Home," Julie Andrews' superbly written autobiography of her earlier years, simply makes the reader eagerly await a second volume, covering the subsequent years of this great star's life. The book is written in a frank and interesting manner, revealing the happenings in a performer's life before and after the curtain is raised and lowered. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
--Ron Howe (a.k.a., Toby Martin II) / Erskine, Minnesota
Book Review: Engrossing, Entertaining Memoir!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the most interesting, well-written memoirs I have had the pleasure to read. In spite of all of the sometimes sordid incidents in her early life, Julie Andrews writes with wit, and provides fascinating details of life in WWII and post war England.
The book really never fails to keep your interest, the photos are marvelous, and I enthusiastically recommend this as the best memoir of recent years.
Book Review: Love Julie, buy this
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a beautifully written, honest look at her early life. Wraps up shortly after she 'makes it' as a successful actress. It's sad, funny, endearing and makes you see Julie as a real person, and not just the amazing singer and actress that she is. If you want to keep your sugar coated idea of Julie Andrews, don't read this...if you want to know her as a real person, I heartily recommend it.Book Review: Home: A Memoir of My Early years
Summary: 5 Stars
If you find Julie Andrews interesting, you will enjoy reading this book. Her early years were not sugar coated. It was interesting to learn how she entered show business and grew in her career. I was sorry to see the book end with her coming to America to film "Mary Poppins." I thought it would continue past her first film with Disney..... This book is easy, interesting and pleasurable reading!Book Review: loved it
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm a big Julie Andrews fan and feel blessed that I have enjoyed her perfomances in person while living in NYC. This is a great memoir as it tells a story that allows us to know the life behind the actress, but not in a self serving way. I do wish that it had come out as a Kindle book sooner. I did but the hardcopy at an airport bookstore because the Kindle version wasn't available at the time.
