Qoutes on Heartbreaker

Celebrity authors:

Gerald Clarke,
author of Capote:
"Opens a book into the last part of her ever-fascinating life. (An) engaging and well-written account".

Dava Sobel,
author of Longitude and Galileo's Daughter:
"What excitement in these tapes!"

John Fricke,
author of Judy Garland: a Portrait in Art and Anecdote :
"Surely as detailed and compassionate a pen-portrait as an intimate has ever done."

Fans:

"Looking at these clips (Judy on the web) inspired me to re-read your book Heartbreaker for what must be the 20th time! I'm always struck by how accurately you convey Judy's speech pattern and nuances. I can hear Judy Garland speaking the words on the pages you've written..."

"I have to purchase your book when it gets re-issued this Spring!!! I was wondering where I could purchase sheet music to songs like It's All For You and After the Holidays; I have fallen in love with this song so much, you have no idea."
~ Brett Boyd

"I have several copies and have read the book probably 15 times. It's one of the best Garland books I have ever read. The day-by-day diary style of writing is perfect. She died many years before I was even born but I have read everything about her. I know the song I'd Like to Hate Myself in the Morning but I have never heard her sing it. Again, thanks for writing my favorite book".
~ Jacob G.

"Hi there -I just wanted you to know what a fascinating read I found your book to be. I read it several years ago and was pleased to find out it is being re-issued. One can actually hear Judy talking thanks to your writing style. I'd love to do a review of the book. Do you know if it will be for sale in Canada? What an amazing time that must have been for you."

Dear Mr. Meyer, Here's a fan letter from me to you! I love your book, Heartbreaker. I read it about once a year, and I find it to be one of the best simply because it's a look into REALITY with Judy Garland from someone who actually was there. I love it because of the personal insights into her life --the juice she drank (grapefruit and cranberry, alas, with vodka) the perfume, the missing eyeliner in the kitchen, little heart pillbox, etc... the little things that one normally never gets to read about her. Your book is quite unique I believe. It's just fascinating. It definitely is among the coolest books about her!"

Dear Mr. Meyer, my name is Janey and I'm 23 years old. I recently completed reading your book, Heartbreaker, for the fourth time since July of this past year. Each time I finished it I've intended to write you and tell you how much I've enjoyed it. Because of your book I discovered the legendary Judy Garland and am completely fascinated and intrigued by, not only her enormous talent, but Judy herself. I have never read a biography that seems to introduce its reader so personally to the subject like Heartbreaker does. The candid style and emotion with which you wrote of your experiences with Judy is very touching, and through the vivid details you describe I feel as if I've been introduced to you both. I am planning a vacation to New York in June, and I hope to visit some of the various locations that you mention in your book, so the details you describe have helped me a great deal in my planning. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter."
