review 1: This is a wonderful book to own and look at: the pictures are bright, glossy and colourful. The small written chapters included are unbiased and give a solid overview of Marilyn's life and career. Although enjoyable to flick through, it didn't really add much more insight than I have already come across in other books about Marilyn. At times, you do find yourself questioning why you are looking through pages of receipts for dry cleaning, inventories of clothing and so on, but letters to and from Marilyn were more interesting and helped illustrate the kind of person she was. I don't regret having bought and read the book, but I don't feel I would have missed out terribly having not done so.
review 2: Wow--just wow. With the many MM books I have read, I have alw... moreays had a hard time picking a favorite --this is definitely one of them---detailing MM's personal history through her file cabinets, the pictures, letters and text are a must have for the true fan--I felt so close to her reading this--her writing letters to her stepkids in the voice of their dog, the many personal things she kept--this right up there with the auction guide I paid 100 dollars for among my favorite MM things ever. less
