Being Jordan - Katie Price

Advantages: Easy reading if nothing else
Disadvantages: Sounds arrogant in some parts

...here is my review of Being Jordan by Katie Price... JUST WHO IS KATIE PRICE? ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ I think it's inevitable that given the publicity she receives it would be hard not to know that Katie Price is actually the glamour model AKA Jordan. Not only is Katie Price a rather successful glamour model but she is also a successful businesswoman, author and of course wife of Peter Andre & mother to Harvey & Junior. Maybe though, we shouldn't ...
...With a reputation for being somewhat of a wild child, I hoped this book would make for interesting reading and provide an insight into the life of Jordan, celebrityville, how she feels when she is called an unfit mother and generally give her side of all the negative and positive press attention she has received in the past. Of course, this is just the the first instalment of a 2 books currently published, after all she is an astute businesswoman, ... Read review

Advantages: Gives an insight into the 'glamour modelling' world. Good photos. Easy to read.
Disadvantages: Scanty on any new revelations.

...sources. I could see this being a necessary part of a fan's memorabilia, but for me being interested in the more human side of her, it fell short of the mark. Overall my feelings are, that whilst this provides a fairly good and interesting read, it's mostly a rehash of what's already been written about many times before. I believe it's an attempt at altering the public's image of her, with the result that records she is trying to set straight are ...
...that I finished the book being only a little wiser, and at RRP £7.99, I would have been miffed if I'd personally paid that price. A continuation of her autobiography has recently been released called 'A Whole New World' which takes her life-story to the present day. Maybe in the latest addition to her autobiography more of her 'openness' will be displayed? I for one will not be paying for the 'privilege', but if a copy should accidentally fall into ...

Advantages: Can be bought cheaply
Disadvantages: No real insight into her life

...work of literature. That being the case, it's a great read. It's written in the language of the tabloids, which is to say in pretty simple language. It's the closest you can come to having a no-brainer in a book. When somebody lives their life very much in the public eye, or in the pages of the tabloids, you have to expect that much of their life will have already been published elsewhere. But you would hope that when they do come to tell their ...
...completely one sided, with Jordan being the victim and making out that the only thing she has ever done wrong is to make a few unwise choices. The whole thing is wildly self indulgent and strangely lacking in emotion. Sure, we're hearing all about Jordan's love, or at least sex, life but there's little that involves you in the story. You can't really get emotionally involved when she falls in love and it's virtually impossible to feel her pain when ... Read review

Advantages: Great celebrity gossip
Disadvantages: I finished it too quick

...the window, a copy of Being Jordan by none other than Katie Price. I knew this book had only been out a short time so just had to go in and purchase it for, wait for it …….. £1.50. After reading the reviews on Ciao for this book and now owning a copy for myself, I decided to write an opinion of my own. I hope you enjoy it, I am trying not to give too much away. WHO IS THIS BOOK ABOUT? Katie Price aka JORDAN., the Brighton Belle who appeared in ...
...IS SHE FAMOUS FOR? She’s not well known for her brains and she’s certainly no scientist. What Jordan does best is take her clothes off, sleep with half of England and have her boobs blown up to over sized proportions. Jordan began her modelling in humble beginnings, for a pair of paedophiles. Unwittingly she posed for months near naked whilst only a young girl. Eventually she was spotted by Sam Bond and the Sun took on her by chance as a page 3. ... Read review

Advantages: Enjoyable and interesting to read
Disadvantages: None

...makes herself out to be? Being Jordan reveals the truth behind the lies and who Katie price really is. *** My Opinion On... *** Here you will find my opinion on every aspect of the book from the way it is written, how many secrets are revealed and what I now think after reading it, just to give you the best idea of how much you think you'll enjoy it. 1) The Way It Is Written. The book is separated into 34 chapters. Some are only a couple of pages ...
...through the book. With it being an Autobiography, the writing wasn't done by Katie herself but it didn't show that it wasn't Katie writing. There were a few swear words in there but nothing over the top I don't think. The writing in it isn't too small and I like the photographs that are added too although when reading the book I did get frustrated because you'd get to the bottom of the page, turn over and there would be 4 pages of photographs before ...
