I am currently reading "Roseanne: My Life As A Woman" and I'm not finished but I will go ahead and post my review for "My Lives".
"My Lives", which I would definetely rate PG13 because of its sexual content and language, really talks about the show. She talks alot about what a jerk Matt Williams was, and how there were all kinds of problems. She also talks about Tom Arnold and how she had to try really hard to get him to be a writer for the show, and how everyone else hated him because he was Roseanne's boyfriend. It is kind of ironic to hear her talk about how she and Tom are soulmates when they divorced the year this book was released. I recommend this book to EVERYONE on this board, since you all (hopefully) like the show.
From what I have read of "Roseanne: My Life As A Woman", she just simply talks about her life from birth to the time the book was released, which was when she was still with her first husband Bill Pentland. I think that if you are interested in Roseanne's life, before all the controversy, then read this book. If you could care less about Roseanne and just like the show, read "My Lives".
I also plan to read "My Sister Roseanne: The True Story of Roseanne Barr Arnold" written by Roseanne's sister Geraldine Barr. I didn't place a hold on it in my library yet because I already have the other 2 "Roseanne" books out.
