Has anyone read this biography of Lucille Ball???

Yes, I have and may I say it reads like it is out of the "National Enquirer." I had no intentions of adding it to my collection, so I borrowed it from the Library.

It was a good book, but very repetative. There was no new information and sometimes the author used exact phrases from other books.

Well I am pretty sure ALL of his information is from other souces, but he certainly didn't take the time to paraphrase any of it. If one would call any of it research I would most certainly use it in the loosest sense of the word.
