Furious Love: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and the Marriage of the Century Audiobook

" Yes its tacky and they were obscene in their excess, but it is interesting to understand celebrity and to understand them. Definitely I devoured it. "

" This book was so fun to read! It was packed with great information, and the title absolutely delivered. For a good gossipy read, this is great! "

" I cannot wait to get my hands on this book. Love love love Elizabeth Taylor. "

" The relationship between Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton was truly bigger than life - I can't say I envy them, but their story is fascinating to read about. And admittedly, I wouldn't mind it much if my boyfriend started sending me letters as love-struck as Burtons... "

" Loved the story, but not Kashner's writing style. "

" Liz & Dick were CLEARLY wild for eachother! Great telling of their LOVE story! "

" I really enjoyed this inside look. "

" Really fun old Hollywood pleasure reading. "

" Ate it up. "

" fun fun and more fun. you do feel that they would have found their way back to each other if burton hadn't died so early "

" This book started out fast and pretty salacious but it lost steam half way through. They lost their lust for each other and I did too. Their relationship was pretty fascinating and tragic, for while they were apart, they still ached for each other. Oh love, how tangled you are. "

" I thought this book was poorly written. At times both repetitive and contradictory, the author seemed to rely on simply retelling the story of Ms. Taylor and Mr. Burton's relationship instead of showing how fraught and scandalous it really was. "

" Strangely beautiful!! Heart breaking "

" Great summer read. Just the right level of trashiness for my second unplanned week off this month! "

" Fascinating, and a wee bit heartbreaking at times. "

" A little too breathlessly reverential about a couple that seems louche, at best. "

" A fascinating story of the Taylor-Burtons and all their drama...better than so much fiction out there!! "

" Fantastic and engaging. Really enjoyed it. "

" So much better than Brangelina...filled with poetry and remorse and madness. I found it intriguing and inspiring. What strange lives.... I was sorry, at the end, that both these wild and passionate individuals are dead and gone. "

" Epic love story; so-so book. "

" I did enjoy this book, but it makes me sad that such talented people have such distorted lives. It seems impossible to achieve normalcy when fame strikes. "

" Interesting book with great photos, but could be about half as long and be better. I can't bring myself to read the last half when Tina Fey's book is begging me to read it. Officially abandoned. "

" I enjoyed this book so much and it breaks my heart that my mom can't read it as she'd have loved every single page. "

" If you are going to write about specific photographs or items that were photographed, include them in the book. Otherwise, fun and easy read about two tragic lovers. "

" Not particularly well-written, but an interesting read in how not to conduct oneself through life and love. "

" Fascinating look at Old Hollywood and the drama and scandal that accompanied their relationship. "

" Interesting, well written biography of a marriage or two extraordinary, messed up people who were bot good and poison for each other. Some of it I already knew, but there was much I learned. "

" Was curious to learn more about Elizabeth Taylor and this book was recommended. Found the story of Elizabeth & Richard's marriage, their films and their lives fascinating. Now I have a long list of movies to rent! "

" Some great loves are too white hot to last! Liked it! "

" It was a pretty good book but it really didn't need to be 500 pages. There was repetition that took away from the book. "

" Sort of looking behind closed doors--felt a bit perverse. She died last week, and my curiosity was aroused. Now it isn't. "

" Having been a young teen during the "scandal", I was fascinated by anything written about "Liz and Dick". It was nice to read about Elizabeth and Richard from those who were actually there. I can't help but wish that they are finally together. "

" Great love story. Much passion. However a bit too long and too much detail. "
