Reviews

[Peridot]

"In this episode, Fred had a glass of milk" and other such sterling and rivetingly-written insights. made with a lot of love and little talent or style

[Mary Lou]

Some good information, but put together badly.

[Hope Woods]

Every I Love Lucy fan should read this book!

[Amelia]

Most of this book just summarizes each individual episode. It would have been more enjoyable if it had behind the scenes facts or trivia about the episodes as well.
