Anxious to read Sally Field's book.

I ordered her book "In Pieces" from Amazon & think it sounds like a good read. Have always loved her as an actress too!

I saw she wrote a book. She said she was glad Burt won't be able to read what she wrote.???

I just started it today, while at the salon. I'm only a few pages in.

Definitely want to read her book! I am wondering what she says about Burt!

@meallen616 I saw her interview on Nightline with Diane Sawyer. Apparently he suffered from panic attacks & overall I think she felt like a caretaker for him. Hope we both enjoy the book!

I guess the part where she describes humiliating facts about Burt Reynolds may be interesting to some, but the rest of it. . . meh.  Not a fan of Sally Field.

I like her but wouldn't pay the $ to read her book.  I'd get it at the library.  I also entered the Goodreads giveaway.  There aren't that many copies and a lot of entries but I might as well try.

After her comments on Twitter I am not interested in anything she has to say.

Now I am interested in what she said on twitter.

 

Supposedly my (male) hairdresser's wife works for a man that owns a lot of properties and he said that Burt Reynolds died in one of his homes, and that he (Burt) was flat broke.  I will be listening to see if it is reported that he really was broke, because my hairdresser tells me a lot of crazy stuff, and I am never sure if I should believe him or not.

I'll buy her book.  Her telling a little about her formative years, Burt and her family with her drive to succeed in acting promises that the book will be a good read.

 

And thanks to @Janey2, I checked out Sally's Twitter feed and see her thoughts are delightful, kind, and caring about our society.  I'm now one of her 137 thousand Twitter followers.
