Being Jordan - I thought it was a great book
Advantages: You get to know Katie Price as a person Disadvantages: none
...she is just a human being after all..
In my opinion the book was very down to earth, I felt that she didn't put on any hairs and graces, and I felt that what you see is what you get with her., and the fact that she wanted to make something of herself.. From starting the book, I was unable to put it down, and I even ironed whilst reading it, has I felt that I didn't want to miss anything. Great book to read, I would definetly read this book again, ...

Burnt Toast - goes down well for a change!
Advantages: Will leave you feeling good! Disadvantages: One for the girls only!
Now, I'm not one for celebrity Biography\'s or autobiography\'s especially by so called celebs who bring out a book after being in the limelight for a couple of years or just because they have been on BB (which Teri isn\'t)!! This book however seemed to scream at me from the shelf. I have always liked Teri Hatcher and having seen her in the press for various bad things happening to her I was intreagued to say the least to hear things from her point ... ...I loved it and couldn't put it down. She is very funny! You fall for her story like that of a blockbuster movie. The book is very personal and she talks very frankly about everything that has happened to her and how she coped, or didn\'t cope as the case may be. You find yourself relating to certain aspects of her story which only helps you be captivated even more. The way this book is written is like you personally, are having a conversation with ...

1st book was superb, this is outstanding
Advantages: inspiring and touching insight to a terrible life Disadvantages: none
I loved her first book "ugly" from how she was abused by her mother and mothers boyfriend, dad didnt want to know her or did until her mother seen him off a good few times.
Lets face it, she had a pretty grim and shocking childhood.
The second half to her life, is mainly her practising or wanting to practise becoming a lawyer, what goes against her mainly is her colour.
But she fights through that with not many problems.
Then she starts practising ... ...melting as she had more than enough things in her past to make her turn her back on everything, i dont think i would have the strength to overcome what she has.
Her problem now being, due to the torment and constantly being told how ugly she was, Constance now has literally no confidence, no self esteem and no self worth or self respect. She sees and believes all the flaws that were obviously put into her into after so many years and wants to change ...

Billy _ by Pamela Stephenson
Advantages: A very entertaining read Disadvantages: none
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Billy is a very complex character but Pamela really understands him & seems to be able to get into his
mind at times. She is an excellent writer & introduces lots of humour into the book.
The book charts his life from birth to the star he is today.
Billy was born and brought up in the tenements of Glasgow where he lived in poverty and was sexually abused by his father.
Billy's teavhers thought he was slow and stupid, ... ...his comedy on his colleagues.
Billy worked his way up from doing stand up comedy in pubs and clubs to become an international star you can't help but love.
Billy and Pamela seem to be happily married but this must be due in part to Pamela's tolerance and undertanding of Billy's mind!
I am sure you will find this book to be a very entertaining read. ...
