I can't rate it. My image of Joan Crawford is very much influenced by her daughter's testimony in [b:Mommy Dearest 57528292 Mommy Dearest Cristina Crawford https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/book/50x75-a91bf249278a81aabab721ef782c4a74.png 90084181]. This isn't really a biography, it's more a guide book in how to live like Joan Crawford... As Joan imagined it. She gives advice on marriage, child rearing, beauty, weight loss, clothes... how to be a woman. It's very good advice, I think, somewhat old-fashioned, but also quite modern and feminist. A bit weird combination... after all, she was born 1904, The attitudes are a bit old-fashioned.
