TV show is better than the book
I enjoy watching her show better than reading the book. However, the book is very simple and good for young people.
I sure hope so!
I adore this woman....and all her books. This one is very good for young people thinking about doing something financially stupid in a relationship...Team Judge Judy up with Dr. Laura for Vice President and America has a winning ticket! Go, "girls"!
Fanof Judge Judy
This excellent book is an entertaining insight into the character of the Judge we see on TV. We always knew that common sense was her strong point.
Wonderful Book
My daddy, Johnnie Barker, just loves Judge Judy. I ordered this book for him. Not a huge reader, he read this from cover to cover!
She's the boss, applesauce!!!
In her characteristic sarcastic wit and dry humor style, Judge Judy addresses some serious topics with this entertaining book. Bringing her perspective from many years of adjudicating Family Court issues, Ms. Sheindlin could qualify as a psychiatrist as much as she is a judge. Written in a "Dear Abby" format, Judy answers many letters apparently written to her regarding family disputes over the years; an interesting twist, though, is that you get to read both of the disputing parties view on the issues, with Judy then rendering her opinion and legal advice.
There is, however, a slight undertone of "male bashing" throughout which, although perhaps occassionally justified, gets a bit annoying, and leads me to believe that the intended audience for this book is largely female. But anyone concerned about the social ills afflicting family life in the US will benefit from Judge Judy's unique viewpoints and her genuine attempt to improve the current status quo. Judge Judy, you go girl!!!
