Holy shit!



Footnote: This book would be a fraction of the size without all of the legal disclaimers and denials from Tom Cruise’s lawyers and from the Church of Scientology. Maybe just a blanket statement at the beginning would’ve sufficed?!

Tooter Holy Shit is right Kelli. I haven't read this book but I watched the documentary. It's mind-numbing stuff.


Paula K You have it right, Kelli. This book was something! One of my favorite nonfiction books.

Melanie I haven't read this either but watched an HBO documentary. It is unreal!!


message 4: by Cheri (new)

Cheri I read this, I think my oldest son bought it for me, or maybe he loaned me his copy... I think it was around the time the HBO documentary came out, I remember watching it soon after I finished the book. Best review for this book, Kelli!


message 5: by Deanna (new)

Deanna I love this review :) I really want to read this and see the documentary.


Cathrine ☯️ I watched the documentary a short time ago and I echo your un-"Holy shit!"

JanB haha...awesome review, lol!!! I want to read it now :-)


Mr. Andy I like the added touch of all the notes from Tom Cruise's nanny. Such a petulant group of bonkers folks.
