As an avid reader of anything Katharine Hepburn, I immediately picked up this book and zipped through it in a day. It is written by the daughter of one of Kate's assistants and close friends, Norah. The chapters were short and sweet, briefly mentioning people and incidents from Kate's colorful life. Various recipes also popped up here and there which added something different. The only thing that I wasn't crazy about was the author's choice of format: 'My mom this,' 'My mom that.' On and on and on. Yes, dear Author, we get the point that your mother was around Ms. Hepburn on a daily basis. Personally, I'd prefer to hear the stories, which were very entertaining and worthwhile, without the 'My mother' bit that almost always preceded the actual story.
