" Wonderful honest biography of the talented Susan Lucci "
— Dorothy, 2/15/2014 -
" I grew up watching Erica Kane with my mom, so I enjoyed Susan Lucci's book. She isn't a writer and it shows. Her stories were often vague and glossed over. I find it hard to believe that EVERYONE was a pleasure to work with... :o) I think in real life she is a very private person and opening up in a book was not an easy task for her. With all that said, I enjoyed the book for what it was. "

" As a one time superfan of All My Children, I wanted to read this book. I watched the show for about 20 years and have always wanted to know more about the woman behind Erica Kane. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone that has watched AMC or followed Susan Lucci's career. I "

" 3 1/2 stars..... Susan Lucci doesn't have a mean word to say about anyone. Her dedication and loyalty to her fans is amazing. She is where she is today due to her hard work and determination. Being a loyal "All My Children" since day one I will dearly miss Erica Kane and all of her antics!! "

" Oh God. Not that I wanted to read a book about someone complaining all the time, but her "overly positive" view on everything is a little sickening, and makes me think it's fake. She definitely exhausted every synonym for wonderful, great, terrific, amazing, etc known to man in this book!!! "
— Simone, 11/23/2013 -
" I'm a huge AMC fan so it was fun to read about the infamous Erica Kane in real life! It was a very quick read...literally started and finished it within a 6 hour car ride, but good! "

" I grew up watching "All My Children" so I am curious to read about Susan Lucci. This was a wonderful book. She is an awesome lady and was not bashing people or throwing out names, she was honest and witty throughout this book. "
— Jen, 6/26/2013 -
" I was a huge fan of All My Children and I still miss the show greatly. I refuse to watch its replacement! This book was a wonderful look behind the scenes with Susan and her life outside the show. If you were a fan read it! "
— Michelle, 5/31/2012 -
" I'm halfway through the audio book and her voice is just too syrupy sweet for me but I'll finish this as I think she's such a beauty! "

— Karen, 2/8/2012 -
" I have had the pleasure of talking with Susan Lucci twice and found her to be gracious, lovely and down- to- earth. These qualities come across clearly in this delightful book. I am an unabashed fan of both Ms Lucci and her book. "
— Debra, 12/18/2011 -
" Her life is definitely NOT a soap opera! Everything is wonderful, everybody she meets is wonderful, her children are wonderful, her husband is wonderful. Blah, blah, blah. I wanted some juicy tidbits and just got wonderful this and wonderful that. Still love her, though! "
— Julie, 10/28/2011 -
" I have watched Susan Lucci on "All My Children" for almost 30 years and she is one of my favorite actresses. Sadly, the show is cancelled. I'm going to be in withdrawal very soon. Susan Lucci has always kept her private life very private so it was interesting to read about her. "
— Peggy, 7/5/2011 -
" Well, unless her co-author really put a spin on her life, La Lucci appears to be a genuine, thoughtful, and appreciative person. I enjoyed hearing about her show biz tales and family life. Very enjoyable for me, a long-time Erica Kane fan. So there. "
— Carol, 5/18/2011 -
" I'm on a biography and autobiography reading things this year and this is one I could not resist. <br/> <br/>not quite what I was expecting. She's had a very happy and fulfilling life but the read was kind of pedestrian. "
— Regan, 5/16/2011 -
" I'm a big All My Children fan, so I enjoyed the book. It's not one of the best books I've read but I gave it 4 stars because it was easy to read and entertaining to me. You have to like Susan Lucci probably, to like the book. "
