Book Review of My Mother's Keeper

My Mother's Keeper
reviewed on + 24 more book reviews


This is an amazing book! B. D. Hyman took a lot of flak for exposing the crazy behavior of her mother, Bette Davis, but it served a purpose: a medium to make her mother take notice of how she hurt the family. This book is similar to Mommie Dearest, except for the fact that Bette Davis did not inflict physical abuse upon her children. Well-written book, interesting look back at Hollywood stardom.
