Book Reviews of Find Me
Book Review: Amazingly Thoughtful and Provocative
Summary: 5 Stars
This book, although it encompassed a mere three hours of my life, was highly profound and insightful.Rosie is engaging and witty (as usual) and writes with such amazing candor and beauty. The beauty is born out of the simplicity with which she writes. The reader is allowed to become captivated by the story (and anecdotes), instead of becoming caught up in the language and prose of the novel. The frank nature with which Rosie writes makes it seem as though she is speaking to the reader directly...
I was remarkably moved and touched by the book, and found it to be highly thoughtful and provocative. Rosie's aching and longing echoes the human condition, and her ability to rise above the anguish to confront what she fears the most (herself, and the expression of her parts) is truly revealing.
I was enthralled, and would recommend this to anyone... it takes so little time to read, and yet is so well worth it.
I'm definitely thankful.
Book Review: Rosie lets us inside her world
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to say that the minute I opened this book, I was hooked. Although I was in my senior year of high school, and had class all day, the first day this book came out in May of 2002, I hid it within my textbooks and read the book all day. I finished it before I went home and even began rereading it then. This book touched so many parts of my emotional skeleton that I never knew I had. I found it entirely relateable and opened, to the fans of Miss O'Donnell, just enough of the window into her incredible life and road to the life she now has. Although vague at times, I feel it touched on everything just perfectly, never going into anything too much. I suggest this book to anyone, even if you could care less about Rosie, as it is more of a mystery you can't wait to solve, than a normal "star autobiography". A must read.Book Review: Great read.

I am a big fan of Rosie O'donnel and I couldn't wait to read this book. I thought that it was going to be more about Rosie's personal life, but it was mostly about Stacie, the girl she was trying to help. Rosie did share parts of her life with us. She told us enough to let us into her thoughts and emotions but not so much that she was rambling about her life. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and I recommend it to anyone. Even if you aren't a huge Rosie fan, the twisted, true-life story is interesting and surprising. Great Read!Book Review: Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
Well done Ro. Just saw book listed on your blog and got it. LOVE IT. So self disclosing, so open and vulnerable. Wonderful. Riveting and kept my interest. Well thought out writing style too. FANTASTIC! Makes me think EH needs to get honest with herself and find HER SELF! Rosie's complexities brilliantly delivered here. EH, over simplistic, fundamentalist and fundamental views. We love you RO.Book Review: I loved it
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was a great read. It shows the realness in a celebrity. That her life had it's ups and downs just like everyone elses and the range of emotions that she experienced growing up... were just like you or I went through. You can really relate to her story in one way or another. Highly recommended.
