I had this for my birthday as anyone who knows me knows I love HRC. It was a quick, easy read and I found Rita's story of the growth of HRC quite interesting. However it could have been proof read better ( can't bear typos and grammatical errors) and I feel it didn't flow as well as it could. I would have liked more stories about the rock stars, the food, the other cafes and no doubt she could probably write another 6 books to tell all her stories. Nevertheless it was pleasant enough if you have an interest in HRC! Like me!! Lol
well! what an amazing career for this gal!! she really lucked out on her lifetime work! I have to ask my Mom if she saw Rita when she was in the Hard Rock/London that time.. errors(many, sadly-new editor absolutely required for Ebury Press, altho I do not understand why the author does not catch these things themselves.. It is not the editor who wrote the book, the author's name is in big bold letters-when they get the galley of what the book will actually look like, why don't they read the thing? I don't get it.. never did.. p.121: 'I'd been on a jumbo jet and when and I boarded it'.. hm... p.123: 'my jaw dropped when I when i saw'... huh? p.127: 'come out from the kitchen and the a pair of them'... another huh? p.184: 'it also has it's own private'... conjunction not necessary here. p.195: 'our first restaurant on New York'... um, hello? on?
