I was surprised at the negative reviews for the book. The back cover says it is an account of her time after her hit show and on The View. Yes, the blog entries may get in the way, but they do add her viewpoint in sort of a poetic way. She does something most celebrities wont admit, fame does change the way people look at you, in fact, they not only look at you, but want to touch you, hug you, engage you. No wonder celebrities walk around with bodyguards. She does a good job telling us what really happened at The View. I forgot that she had a one year contract although the media made such a big deal about her leaving. I would be interested in hearing about her experience being on the radio and how it differs from being on TV. I had this book on my shelf for a few years and finally read it in a day.
