From Barnes & NobleActor Rob Lowe was a world famous heartthrob when he was just a baby-faced teenager. Now forty-seven, he can reflect on an already long, astonishing career that has included Brat Pack fame; film triumphs; TV shows flops and controversies; West Wing brouhahas; scandals; well-publicized relationships; a battle with alcoholism; and an unexpected comeback. Like its title, Lowe's Stories I Only Tell My Friend possesses a light confessional tone, making it an engaging read for his many fans (and perhaps a cautionary read for Justin Bieber).
Janet MaslinThroughout this book Mr. Lowe emerges as a canny observer of both himself and others, and as someone whose instincts have grown increasingly sharp over time.
