Horribly disappointing and insulting
I received my book from UPS...I couldn't wait to open it. I check out the table of contents..., Intro, celebrity names and... nothing else. Hmmm ok let's check it out.
Howard WTF? You spent 2 years on this? It's MAYBE 10% original content. The other 90% is literally transcribed interviews. Why would I want to read interviews I've already heard on air?
The way he's been talking the book up, I thought it was going to be a tell all of the last 20 years. Not even remotely close. I was almost shocked when I flipped through the 600 pages to see ONLY transcribed interviews.
I love Howard. I listen every single day. This book is not a bit of a misstep, it's a slap in the fan's faces. Sadly, I have returned mine.
