Book Review: Me and Murder, She Wrote


Book: Me and Murder, She Wrote by Peter S. Fischer

Source: Borrowed from publisher/NetGalley for an honest review

Publication: Available now

Rating: 3 stars

Review:

This was a light and easy read that I thought was inspirational especially for those who want to getting into writing, specifically in TV or movies. The book focused on Peter Fischer's career as it takes him from his first endeavor, a TV Movie of the Week to all his hits and misses along the way to Murder, She Wrote.

There were a few parts I found boring but I would say that was probably due to the fact that I was unfamiliar with the actors or TV shows that the author was talking about. This book is filled with a lot of interesting moments as well as a few sad ones that pertained to the deaths of his brother and many of his friends as the years started to go by.

Overall, this was a fun and lighthearted slightly gossipy book that gives you an interesting look at what goes on behind the scenes to how TV shows and made-for-TV movies get made. You also get a bit of insight into some of the actors that he had worked with. Although, most of the Murder, She Wrote stuff was left for near the end of the second half of the book, this was still a good read.
