A very inspirational read. A little disappointed in how short the book is. I wish the author spent more time talking about the inventions part of her life. There's a lot of emphasis on the acting and personal life. But I guess this book is more about who she was as a person than what she did. Regardless, I really enjoyed it.

Really interesting read. I like novelization of real people, but am never sure how much weight to put on the facts presented. Writing itself isn’t outstanding and some characters are pretty flat (e.g., Mandl). Worth a read, but I wish. I hadn’t paid money for it.
