Tom Cruise (Abridged): An Unauthorized Biography Audiobook

" Definitely one of those books that you have to take with a grain of salt, but there was a lot of interesting information on Cruise's background that I didn't know. And a fascinating look into Scientology. "

" Ok. Normally I wouldnt have bought a book like this. But i heard that it had alot of insider knowledge about Scientology. GLAD i read it. I don't like making judgments about other people's beliefs. But let me say..Be afraid, be very afraid of this one. "

" Very interesting. I learned a lot about Scientology. "

" This book started out very good. I knew almost nothing about Tom Cruise's upbringing and childhood. I found it interesting. However, Andrew Morton rushed through his high school years and his first couple films. I wanted to know more details and wish he would have taken the time to talk to more people. However I think Mr. Morton knew that Scientology would be the money making part of the book and decided to rush to get there. I felt there were times that he left Tom Cruise's life just to talk about Scientology. I don't know much about it but I bought the book to learn about Tom Cruise's life not just Scientology. I was very disappointed in the scant knowledge of his marriage to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman. I wanted to know more about Penelope Cruz and how they came to be and break up. Mr. Morton didn't really explain anything. I would have gave this book a lower rating but the chapters on Scientology were interesting and he did go into detail about it. I would recommend this book to someone who knows nothing about Tom Cruise otherwise wait for the paperback or buy as a bargain book or get from a library. "

" This book was awful. I bought it at the Dollar Store so I don't feel too bad about spending the money. But horrible. I really don't like Tom Cruise, and the author seemed to have a personal crusade against him. But for all the pages there was hardly anything about Tom Cruise. "

" WOW - does he have issues! "

" It was interesting but had a lot of repitition. It wasn't as sensationalistic as the negative press implied. Fascinating how a "religion" can define you and how we start to believe our own myths. "

" What a freaking weirdo "

" Somebody dared me to read this. "Why not?" I thought. "I could use some mind-numbing light reading for a change." Sweet Jesus! What a waste of publishing resources that was! I shall spend the next few weeks drinking away the brain cells where this piece of shite was stored. "

" Those scientologists sound scary.... "

" My friend Laura loaned me this book. Shame on her. I burned through it in less than 48 hours. Tom Cruise is one sick puppy, that is, if the stuff in this book is true. I vow never to spend another of my hard-earned dollars on one of his movies. "

" I'm no longer a Huge Tom Cruise fan....glad this is unauthorized and hopefully not true. Odd "

" This was good. Just too bad that it wasn't written a little bit later. Would be curious of the author's take on the newer developments in Tom's life. "

" Scientology and Tom Cruise are completely nuts...very disturbing that many powerful and influential people believe in such a twisted cult. "

" I did not read this book bc I am a big Tom Cruise fan (I have seen maybe 5 of his movies), but more bc I am intrigued with his relationship with Scientology. This book delved deep into it and I found it very interesting. I think more people need to understand how insane the whole thing is. "

" Andrew Morton is not the greatest writer in the world, but I was fascinated/horrified to read about Tom Cruise's descent into Scientology. What a nasty, nasty cult. It really is no laughing matter. A good read. I couldn't put it down, once I got past Tom's (boring) childhood. "

" Katie and Suri forever!!!!! "

" I'm giving this 5 stars because it blew my mind and I couldn't put it down. "

" Free Xenu! "

" I know a lot about Scientology now. The most interesting info was about his childhood and break into the business. "

" I enjoyed it for entertainment purposes. Lots of 'find outs' about Tom. "

" WOW - does he have issues! "

" Ok, for what it was, a shallow look at TOm's life and career without really revealing anything important about the actor or his craft. "

" This book was awful. I bought it at the Dollar Store so I don't feel too bad about spending the money. But horrible. I really don't like Tom Cruise, and the author seemed to have a personal crusade against him. But for all the pages there was hardly anything about Tom Cruise. "

" What I learned from this book, that Tom Cruise is a prick, as we all suspected. Nice little expose. "

" well...knowing what i know now about his belief system, he makes perfect sense. i don't understand how he believes what he believes, but...his behaviors and attitudes line up perfectly with his "truth". "

" I started this ages ago, was caught up in it.. then I had a baby. Must find and finish... eventually.. "

" Thank you, Lucye, for leaving me with this riveting and intellectually stimulating novel. "

" Well....if this book is true, then TC is a nut and POOR katie holmes. "
