Private Parts (Mass Market Paperback) by Howard Stern bookshelves: read-biographies |
my rating:

read in August, 1997
John said:
"3 1/2 stars. I am not a fan of the radio show (last listened in the mid 80s), but this was a very funny and revealing book. Underneath all the bathroom humor, Howard Stern can be witty, intelligent, and highly entertaining. (I enjoyed the movie too.)
