pickInteresting. More detailed & thorough than I expected. At times a but too detailed as a lot of it was the same, but it was interesting to get such a deep insight into this legend‘s life. It ended up being shorter than I thought since about 40% of the book is the acknowledgments, end notes, bibliography, etc.
pickRepublished in honour of what would have been Sinatra's 100th birthday in 2015, this is a personal tribute to 'Ol Blue Eyes' himself. Although it obviously centres around the man & his career, it also covers Italian immigration into America & Sinatra's first brush with prejudice, the rise & fall of Prohibition (& by extension the Mob), & the Second World War.

The current political climate is so cruel , this mug spoke to me , hope it will help me calm down a bit . A beautiful quote for many situations, right?

pickRandomly reading this biography from 2000 with one of my favourite bookmarks and then i realised … OH! Well played bookmark gods.
I‘m interested in this period in Hollywood and the studio machinations behind the scenes - and man, Judy Garland was treated so badly. Her mother had her on amphetamines at the age of 10 😱😱 So I really enjoyed this - but it does have its flaws. ⬇️
I'm not really interested in Hollywood behind-the-scenes stuff but Judy Garland was in two of my favorite movies so I picked it up. It was disgusting how the movie industry treated people. I suppose it was us fans that drove it though. There's money to be made by exhibiting Judy Garland; mental health be damned. Judy grew up on stage, never had a normal life, and was never quite sane. I think she just wanted to go home but that balloon had sailed.
After I saw what happened to Fable users I was really hoping that Litsy's AI would have a go at me.
