"I should be more embarrassed, but I love Tori Spelling. And yes, I will read what she writes. And I'll read Sarah Palin's book, too. And I'll be just as embarrassed and just as enthralled then, too.
The book moves quickly and, while not particularly well-written, it certainly isn't going to make you gouge your eyes out. It's superficial and quirky, but still, somehow, relatable (who cannot understand not fitting in in your neighborhood, having all eyes on your while your child throws a tantrum, trying to figure out HOW exactly to change a swim diaper...?) For the most part, it's shallow and light, but like Donna Martin, there are moments of deepness. Really fleeting moments of deepness....but still, they're there. Technically."
"It seemed most people liked this book so I feel kind of bad about what I'm going to say, but feel it must be said. I found it a pathetic public thrashing of her own mother. I also have a hard time feeling the slightest bit sorry for her. Hello? The average woman doesn't have a ton of money, celebrity, a "baby nurse" or someone that she can hire to carry her toddler while she's pregnant and can't do lifting. Hell, some mothers are single mothers and don't even have a husband to help. I also nearly choked on my tea when she was talking about how Dean had a son from an earlier marriage and Tori was upset because Dean wasn't experiencing the newness of parenthood with her. Lady, in the Midwest, that's what we call karma for messing with another woman's husband. Sorry. I tried to like her and at some parts I just pitied her. Maybe if she would live in the real world with the rest of us,she could even be someone that I would be friends with in another time/place. I just don't think she can relate with the mommies outside of Hollywood.
"I didn't like this book as much as I liked sTORI Telling. This book just wasn't as funny as Tori's firs. This one is mostly about her kids and being a Hollywood mommy. Yawn.
It is obvious that Tori loves her kids and wants to give them a happy life. She also thinks she can give them a "normal" life. I doubt that's going to work out, but whatever.
This book was pure fluff, like eating cotton candy for breakfast, but it sure was nice to have this for easy reading in the bath after two days of work hell (including the sudden death of a super nice co-worker)."
"okay, I'd like to preface my review of the book by the reactions I received when I told my friends/family that I was reading Tori Spelling's book. the first being, "really? what is wrong with you?" but after I get done telling them that I just finished reading Lauren Conrad's first book (who's star rating might be changing after reading this, more on that later), they see this as a vast improvement, so now it's okay?
I want to defend the book first. Tori is amazing witty, funny and articulate. I appreciate the honesty that she writes with, her normalcy (for all intent and purposes), and her inner dialogue/comedy. this was a light, quick read that does let you inside her world and makes you chuckle and realize that we're all the same just trying to figure things out. if you are a fan of her show, then you won't really get much from the book- she is very true to herself and just brings more stories to light. er, maybe she fills in the back story if you don't understand her relationships (or lack thereof) on the show.
my only negative on the book. (which is highly personally and a bit wonky.) is the fact that I am bothered how she talks about Stella, or, her lacking of talking about Stella. maybe I am just hyper-sensitive to being a second child and for once, want to meet a mom that put forth a lot of effort into showering her second child with the love she gave her first, but Tori's book didn't not give me the warm-fuzzy I was hoping for. I mean, I even scrutinized the amount of pictures Liam has compared to Stella (21- 13, in case you were wondering). so clearly, I am not focusing on what she was trying to achieve in this book.
I think she's a great mother and very honest about what a struggle it is to figure it all out. what she needs to realize is that being "normal" doesn't really exist. no book is going to tell you how to get it right. if we were all normal, then none of this would be fun. or worth it.
read it. watch her show. you'll grow to love her and her family.
oh, and I want Lauren Conrad to work with Hilary Liftin."
