grahams reviewed Francona by Terry Francona
Review of 'Francona' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
While this book lists Terry Francona as an author, this isn't really true. While most books 'written' by non-author celebrities are ghostwritten, this book does not even try to make an attempt to show Tito as an author. Instead, it is a Dan Shaughnessy (CHB) book, and Tito is always referred to in the third person. I might not have read this book if I had known this going in, as I really hate CHB's as a writer and a personality. I would have preferred the pretense afforded by the usual ghostwriting arrangement.
I finished this book because the story was engaging, but the writing was infuriating. Unless you're a big Sox fan, you would never want to read this book. In fact, I can't really recommend it to sox fans either.
