If I don't have a Kindle, is there any way I can still purchase this and read it on my computer?

I can't afford to order the book, but besides from Erika Slezak, Ellen Holly, Marylin Chris, Michael Storm, and Anthony Call, which other OLTL past and present cast members are interviewed in this book? I could only get a free sample of the beginning of the book on my free kindle app on my computer.

If you know someone who bought the book they can borrow it to you...but it would have to be a friend you know well enough to share Amazon.com info.

Are you [!@#$%^&*] serious? There's at least fifty to a hundred or more people interviewed. We're not making you a [!@#$%^&*] list.

Ellen Holly needs mental help. My god. Let it go. It seems like she became paranood. Plus this [!@#$%^&*] that she was responsible for Agnes' success. Bull [!@#$%^&*]

Here it is for those who can't get the book:

Ellen Holly: In July of 1983, One Life celebrated its first 15 years on the air. There was a party at the Tavern on the Green -- a big, lavish event where Lillian Hayman and I were celebrated as the show’s only remaining original stars. A lot of people looked at that, including Agnes Nixon, and said “No, we’re not going to have two black women as our only original stars forever and ever. We’re not going to have Erika Slezak sitting around watching this happen.” And Erika Slezak said to Agnes Nixon, “Get those two black bitches out of my face.” Agnes turned around, and bang-bang! Overnight, Jean Arley was gone, and Paul Rauch, the Terminator, was there in her place.

Seriously....this stuff makes me sad :( I refuse to believe that Lillian Hayman would make others think un-highly of her.....do they have any quotes of her's that they kept before she passed?
