I am a very BIG fan of Freddie and find it hard to find things about him. This book was great and i was so happy to find it. I ma one of his largest fans in australia. The book shows that Freddie is a real nice guy and reading this i am sure that you will love him even more. I hope you all enjoy the book!

This book was great. When I went to Borders bookstore, I looked and looked for a Freddie biography, and this was the only one there. I am looking forward to finding the others too, but this one was excellent! it was entertaining, and provided a lot of good information, about his childhood, and about his movies. I am a big fan of Freddie's, and this book made me want to see his earlier works a lot more (To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday, The House of Yes). Freddie fans will enjoy this book! And even if you're not a Freddie fan... well, try it anyway. It's worth reading. =) The only problem is that it was written before some changes occured, such as Freddie and Kimberly breaking up, so it was a little irritating to read about them going out. But it was still factual (of the time that it was written) and it was helpful to know who she was, and how their lives were intertwined. Anyway, read the book, it's enjoyable!

Much like Boswell's Life of Johnson, this book sacrifices some measure of objectivity and thoroughness to achieve a complete and convincing portrait of the subject in question. Basing her work on the 25 years she has known Prinze, Catalano brings to life the garrulous, insatiable, charming man. The work does drag a bit near the beginning, but bildungsroman has ever been the bęte noir of biography. A classic which every bibliophile should own.
