I don't normally read books about celebs or by celebs. Until reading this book I really knew little about Rosie other than what the news media likes to show the public (ususally her loud and brash side). I have never watched an episode of The View or of Rosie's syndicated show. This book shows you the side of Rosie that the news media tends to conveniently forget about. It shows her human-ness. It shows a fierce mama who adores her kids and cherishes her time with them. It shows the struggles of a woman trying to stay true to herself and just be who she is - sometimes pushing people's buttons along the way. While I don't always 100% agree with Rosie, particularly with some of her political views, this book gives me a newfound respect for her and the next time the news media splashes Rosie tabloid headlines my way, I will definately see them in a different light now that I've had a peek at what makes this woman tick.
