The Lady from the Black Lagoon: Hollywood Monsters and the Lost Legacy of Milicent Patrick by Mallory O'Meara

5.0

This was such a beautifully written book. O'Meara writes with passion and an obvious deep love for her subject. I love how she inserts herself into the story and this book is not only a biography of Milicent Patrick but it chronicles O'Meara's journey of discovery too. She is a part of the story just as much as Milicent is - and I'm here for it.

I listened to the audio book version, and I recommend that one. It's read by the author which really makes the whole experience a very personal journey. Her passion, frustration, heart ache, and joy comes through.

10 stars! Can't wait to read more.
