Me: Stories of My Life by Katharine Hepburn

2.0

The first half or so of this book was very interesting. Katharine Hepburn reads it herself in her distinctive voice and tells about her childhood and beginning career. The book is in fairly random order going back and forth when she remembers to tell a story about something. After a while though, she just rambles on and on, recounting entire conversations word for word, telling completely irrelevant stories like the time she stopped to help someone change a flat tire, had to flag down a truck to help them and the truck driver thought she looked like Katharine Hepburn and was just flabbergasted that it was indeed she. The end gets super rambly, with a soliloquy to Spencer Tracy about clearing out their home after his death. And one more time to say, as numerously done throughout the book, she says "I was lucky."
