Love this Book

If you were a Rona Barrett fan you will love this. She tells us about how she started out and her struggles to get there. I was especially surprised that Rona was an overweight kid who had low self-esteem growing up,who turned into the slim gossip maven later. I enjoyed the book, so will you.

Rona Tells of Her Struggles To Make It To The Top

This book is truly a masterpiece. It tells of her very human struggles as a "fat Jewish kid" that children used to tease. Her desires and dreams to be "Miss Somebody" and her willingness to succeed at all costs. She tells secrets of her crushes on the famous people she met and how she found true love with her soul mate, Bill. She speaks of having been the first female, Jewish reporter and the politics behind broadcast journalism. This book is definitely worth reading!
