Book Reviews of 700 SundaysBook Review: Like to laugh, this is the book for you Summary: 5 StarsI read this book a few years ago and passed it around. Recently one of our family members had heart surgery, he is 75. We decided to get this book for him. He loved it. It's an easy read, talks a lot about the Yankees and with all that it's funny (and true)! Great book!!!
Book Review: Loved It! Summary: 5 StarsI saw this book in a BJ's store and thought it looked interesting. So I got it and loved it! Mr. Crystal has always been hilarious and it didn't get shorted in this book! I loved this book so much I brought it down to my dad for him to read and he loved it too! Dad's are special and I thank Mr. Crystal for giving us a little view of his life with his. Awesome work!
Book Review: What a sweetheart, and funny! Summary: 5 StarsI received a copy of this book for my birthday from a dear friend, and have since bought two more copies - one to give to another dear friend, the second one for my father. You don't have to be Jewish to appreciate this book (but it doesn't hurt!) Billy is adorable - and such a wonderful son. It made me laugh and warmed my heart. I love him more than ever. A delight from start to finish. And the photos are priceless!
Book Review: Funny and touching Summary: 4 StarsFound this at the library, never heard of the broadway show, loved the book. A quick, easy and pleasant read that nonetheless has some very solid moments, and plenty of laughs.
Crystal is just plain funny, and he can make fun of his oy-so-Jewish family in a million hilarious ways. His Aunt Sheila's phone speech about her lesbian daughter's wedding is by itself worth reading this book for.
The best surprise for me were the Milt Gabler jazz tales; had no idea Billy was part of the Commodore story. Imagine going to see Shane on a Sunday with Billie Holiday. Unreal.
Tons of great lines, some very touching and sad moments, and Crystal's unique comedic genius make this a winner.
Book Review: How can you NOT love this book? Summary: 5 StarsI have read this book three times, and every time I cry, laugh and smile. It is so well written I am now sure I grew up with Billy Crystal. Read this book! You won't regret it.
