Just in the past year I have become very interested in George Clooney and his life. This book is good for the first time Clooney fan. I went into this book knowing little about George. This book gives mostly facts, but they are great. In general I really loved the book, but it's major flaw is that the readers don't get to go under the skin of Mr. Clooney, to see what makes him tick. This is a good book if you are not a veteran George Clooney fan.

What an enjoyable read, I never put this book down, even when I went to work. More pictures would be the only thing I asked for. And any chance Georgey himself can deliver the next book in person. Cant wait, George is maturing very well, I think I'm in love, again.

As a die-hard Clooney fan, this book didn't tell me anything new. If you don't know much about him, this book will clue you in a little. The information appears to have been gotten from magazine articles that written previously. A few good pictures.

If you need more info on George read this book but if all you want to do is browse through some gorge piccies of him then don't by this book. There are only 6 pictures but they are nice.

This book give you basic facts, good if you're not familiar with HIM. There's a REALLY NICE color picture section!! Overall, this is a great book to pick up !!!

Although the book is fairly well researched there is nothing really insightful as to the man himself. This book gives a lot of quotations from people who have touched George Clooney's life and even something from George himself. However, I feel there could have been more about the thinking and reasoning of George instead of just facts. Dougan also repeats himself in many instances instead of letting it flow. I would also have liked to have read something that was less one sided. There should have been more honesty involved, ie interviews with those who were not particularly fond of George for whatever reasons. Even if we disagree with those views it would have given us a more rounded view of the man. Clooney fans should be delighted with the book.

This book really is everything every Clooniac wants to know about George. It has cute little anecdotes about his childhood and his family and really lets you understand what it is that made him the exceptional man he is today. If you are a fan of George I can guarantee there's something in this book you didn't know. You just have to read it

I really didn't understand this book when I read it the first time but the second time I read it things got a lot more understanding

I enjoyed finding out some more information on George Clooney through this book. It is great to see how George formed as an actor and as a person. My main complaint is that the index for the book is completely and totally inaccurate. After looking up 3-4 items in the index and found no corresponding information on the pages, I got frustrated and gave up. I have been waiting for 3-4 months for this to come out, but have found the book a bit disappointing because it doesn't really give a lot of insight into the person George Clooney is. The book recites all the information we already know about him. I'm not surprised that there were no interviews with the subject directly (knowing his discontent with biographers and tabloids), it would be nice to have had a bit of his input or input from those who are close to him. As a huge George Clooney fan, I am glad to read anything about him and this helped satisfy my "George craving".

I THINK THAT GEORGE CLOONEY SHOULD NOT HAVE LEFT, ER
