Kate Remembered by A. Scott Berg
5.0
Some reviewers have stated that they were disappointed in the writing of this book - that there was too much of the author's story mixed in with Ms. Hepburn's. I really enjoyed that part of the author's story. It added something new to the already known facts that "we" lovers of Hepburn already knew, many times over. The title of the book came to mind . . . should Berg have changed it to insinuate that part of the story was his? "I Remembered Kate," perhaps? I don't believe so. It's a fine title as it stands.
I did wonder, though, at a comment that the author made in the beginning of his story. He wondered why Ms. Hepburn kept inviting him back to her home - almost to the point of living with her at times. By the end of the book, I still wondered that. Out of all the people that she knew, to keep company with, why this young man? All I can surmise is that he had a polite infatuation with her (as many would have had); he knew much of the Hollywood history: actors, actresses, movies; and he provided a great deal of fun, saucy banter, in which she could volley her quick wit about.
The story was very well written, enjoyable, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
