Book Review of My Friend Leonard

My Friend Leonard
My Friend Leonard
Author: James Frey
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on + 14 more book reviews


I took a long time getting into this book. I'm not sure why I kept my distance from it, because I enjoyed A Million Little Pieces. Having finally finished My Friend Leonard (by reading over half of it in 1 sitting), I can say that even if people are angry that James Frey "embellished" his life in his previous work, the fact that he is a gifted writer cannot be disputed. I would have to say it is even better than his other book and well worth the effort and time it took me to read it.
