I thought it was interesting that Fran wrote a book about her experience in finding out she had cancer and how it affected her but I am glad she did. I am glad she gave the insight for us who might wonder what something like that is like and I was happy to read how she got through it all. I now wonder what she has been up to since then. I have seen that she in very involved with promoting early diagnosis and getting multiple opinions when something isn't right but I haven't looked farther than that. Anyway, this is a good read for anyone who is or was a fan of hers or knows someone or if they are going through cancer diagnosis.

This book undoubtedly has some issues, but as a big fan of Fran Drescher's achievements, it's fascinating nevertheless.

Excellent as I expected! If you love Fran you'll love this book. It was like she was sharing her personal story with you as you two shar her favorite pasta dish!

While this book was very depressing (understandably, of course) it was interesting and a good reminder to stick to your opinion if you know something's wrong. The day-to-day retelling got a little stale but was still an interesting read all in all.

I felt outraged reading about Fran's experience with getting diagnosed with cancer. It took 10 doctors until she finally got diagnosed. Why is the question I kept asking myself.

I felt like Fran was more open about herself in this book then in her first one.
