Genre: Non-fiction
Maureen MCormick’s real life was very different than the one she played as a child on The Brady Bunch. McCormick takes us on the journey through her life from childhood to adulthood. She relives some of the worst, as well as the some of the best, moments of her life.
This had to be a painful book for her to write as she talks about the problems her parents went through – marital, as well as problems with their children. We see the agony Maureen herself went through as became a cocaine addict to the point that she’d do anything to get some. A very different life than the one Marcia Brady led.
I found this book to be interesting and very sad. It’s hard to think of anyone going through some of these hardships whether they are a celebrity or not. It doesn’t sound as if her stardom caused her troubles. There seemed to many aspects that added up to everything she went through. It’s good to see she’s on the road to a happy life.
Sounds like such an intense book, but one worth reading - great review!
