When New York Post's gossip columnist, Cindy Adams lost here beloved husband, comedian Joey Adams, her life came to a crashing hault. For years she had been writing her column and taking care of Joey (who was suffering from Alzeheimer's). Suddenly there was no Joey. Her light, laughter and love was gone. Then dear friends thought that Cindy could use a bit of companionship, and her life went from Joey to Jazzy.

Arriving with his own chauffeur, this adorable two pound, two ounce Yorkshire Terrier, better known as Jazzy, came to fill up the now empty space within Cindy's life. This true-to-life account of the days, weeks and years that have followed Joey Adams death, are filled with both tears and laughter. Cindy has a knack for the tongue-in-cheek that all great gossip columnist develop. Writing about her new love, her friends and numerous 'accidents' keeps this biography of the furry both gossiply juicy and real at the same time.

Both fans of Cindy's and her furry companion will find something to awe about in this quirky memoir. Between Star gazing and belly scratches, I can't think of many that would not enjoy Jazzy's colorful anticts or Cindy's interesting way of 'getting by'. This book was a shear delight!

Just about everyone! If you like dogs, enjoy "star gazing", or even reading the gossip column- you'll enjoy The Gift of Jazzy

The impish things that Jazzy did to remind Cindy that he was known the "man of the house"

Name-dropping became a little too much for me, but that's just me.

Run and get a Yorkshire Terrier, but I already have two Australian Shepard/Border Collies!

All warm and fuzzy, like cuddling with a furry little lap dog.

Cindy Adams is a gossip columnist at her best! These people are not only fuel for her column, they are her friends, and you can tell in every word.

it made me feel good. I like to Pay It Forward.
