This is one of the single worst books I have ever read. If you can get past the fact that it is written with the lyrical styling of a toddler, her thousands of mentions of her husbands shows, her constant need to talk about how many things she has in her huge house, etc - then you may enjoy it.

Was hoping that this book would show her in a good light - sadly - I like her even less after reading this.

The book jumps around alot, not a "great flow" but I thought it was a good read. It was interesting to read her perspective, vs. Tori Spellings. I did like that she said nothing negative about Tori (other than she knew she had her recipe cards and she wanted them back).

THis book was simply and seemingly sincerely written. It is done in somewhat of a rambling style. It brought out how much she loved her family and she seems like a very sweet and caring person.
I would have liked it if it had told more about her lifestyle and amazing experiences. I enjoyed reading it.
