Amanda is an inspiration: I admire her ability to turn several classes into a thriving business, & I do love the details & the many photographs in this book; however, her choices of upholstery for the 5 projects leaves much to be desired. I love modern fabrics mixed with traditional furniture styles, & vintage mixed with the unexpected, but these choices left me feeling less than enthused. Of all the gorgeous fabrics, textures, & hues available, what she chose to share with the world leaves one to wonder, "What was she thinking?" It's hard to concentrate on learning the methods, tools, etc., when the results in the book are so lacking, in my opinion.

All in all it was a good read, however I wish he would have answered more questions and wrapped the whole thing up better.

I have enjoyed Howe's books.  However, I think he is a bit behind in the months.  Get Larry Jacklin back to work please.

I liked it but he kept promoting his other books. I wish he would have spent one section on promoting his books. It started to feel like on big infomercial I was reading.

Enjoyed the book, just felt it was not his best.  Not a "page turner" but was just what we wanted as an audio book while we drove on a long trip

its an interesting book, but i wish he had used more of primary sources in print and less just talking about it...

He has a way of taking a sensitive subject & telling a great story about it. I love his books & style of writing.

Witing to follow Caesar's career as he grows up. Wish he'd put a map of old Rome in the book somewhere

Awesome book from the man who was a Temptation for 20 years. I just wished he would have finished it before he passed

Not sure I want to buy his books. Some of his research may hold but having been born in Europe during the war, I question a lot of his research. But I know,as Harry said, I am old,I downsized (wrong) and I die. He does have that right. About the only thing I cannot disagree with,but it's not a reason to write a book.

Loved reading about parts of his life. Would love to have his book Bare, but the prices are awful, some at thousands and hundreds of dollars. It's just very wrong. Profits could be made up in volume instead of price greediness.

I read this book about a year ago and really loved it. Then, I chose to buy it and have my very own copy to read whenever I wanted to. I reread it again (& maybe I hadn't read so closely the first time,) but it seems like Mike Dooley is really not giving much say on reasoning in each chapter. Basically, what hes saying is law and thats that! I wish he had gone much deeper into why he believes certain things. I do love his mindset, but I can understand some discouragement after reading this book.

It's difficult to keep track of the level of flashbacks.  I counted one spot where I was 5 levels deep (flashback in a flashback in a flashback etc.). He spends pages developing an upcoming conflict, then dismisses it with one or two sentences.

I'll definitely read more of his work.  Sometimes he includes too much unimportant information and it gets a little tiresome, but overall I
enjoy it.

It's not as detailed as I would like.  Only the first 75 pages or so are about his life and career.  What material is there is interesting though.  The next 70 or so pages are about his opinions on trading and the future of energy.

First, I must say the CD of Gino's revisiting and re-interpreting old hit
is great!  Some of the songs even sound better than the originals like
Black Cars.  However, the book is just all over the place. In one instance
you feel like Gino is trying to write a flowery expose to show how impressive
his vocabulary is, the next he's really self-effacing and very defensive about
his image. It's understandable that Gino was very busy in the 70's and didn't
have much free time, but  he gets annoyed when people ask him if he was
a playboy or not. Outside of music, you don't get to know much about him.
The best parts of the memoir are when he muses about celebrity's he's met and
how those encounters transpired. He seems to be very gracious that his peers
acknowledge his abilities but you also get the feeling he doesn't have many
celebrity friends which is sad.  He"s still a great musician and I'll always love his music!
