Great Insight into the life of Oprah

I purchased the book thinking Oprah herself wrote it. I still don’t see the author’s name although I searched for it. I’m kind of lost as to who to give credit to. My apologies I’m advance. Overall, very insightful. There were a few things I did not know.

Not many lessons here

I was looking for advice. Lessons were presented in the final chapter. Most of the book was about all the thing Oprah has done. A interesting history but not much depth of advice provided.

If this audio book was not so short this book would have not been finished. Do not waste your time nor money on this biographic summary of the greatest woman to bless this planet. I love and respect Oprah. This audiobook is garbage. Had the topic been different it would have been 1 star.

Mini-Biography

If you are interested in rules for success skip to the end. Mostly this is a biography. Interesting, but title is misleading. Liked little known facts.
