review 1: While I adore Mary Tyler Moore and all the great work she has done regarding diabetes awareness, I like her best when she is acting. The writing isn’t bad per se, but there are better books out there about diabetes management. This book is a sort of mash-up of memoir/diabetes help-book. I just don’t think it works 100%. Regardless, it’s a fun, quick read and if you like Mary Tyler Moore then go for it.
review 2: Mary Tyler Moore's frank discussion about the impacts that Diabetes has had on her life, as well as her own choices that have complicated the illness for her, is a breath of fresh air. There is no 'sugar coating' (no pun intended) the reality of the disease. While Diabetes can be managed, it is a misconception that there are not severe impacts t... morehe disease can have on one's body regardless of the care with which one takes to live a healthy lifestyle. After reading the book, I have a deeper appreciation of her ability to continue to work in comedy with a smile on her face while battling a disease that has already taken so much from her. less
