Review of Angel - Katie Price

...written two biographies prior to Angel - Being Jordan and Jordan: A Whole New World. Angel is Katie's debut novel, but is actually written with the help of a 'ghost author' Rebecca Farnworth. A ghost author is somebody who helps to write a book, but the book is not credited by them. So in this case, the book is actually written by Katie Price and Rebecca Farnworth, although the book is credited as just being written by Katie Price. ●Characters● ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

...an 18-year old girl called Angel - who is gorgeous, but doesn't make an attempt at make-up and usually goes clubbing in jeans.

If it sounds like your kind of read, you'll just have to read it to find out the rest! I wasn't too keen on the ending, though. I'll not say what happened but it was just a bit out of the blue, ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

Angel is the fabulous book by Katie Price. Although when I say BY Katie Price I mean to say that it is ghost written by Rebecca Farnworth. The book was published in June 2006 and sold 300,000 copies in six weeks! At first I was dubious about getting this book as stupidly assumed that being written by 'Jordan' it would be a waste of money, but I was wrong! The book is selling on Play.com for £4.99 and I think it's worth the money. The book itself ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

...go. THE BOOK Angel is an 18 year old plain looking teenager who gets made over by her friend Gemma, surprise, surprise Gemma turns her friend's looks around and Angel becomes quite attractive to look at. Angel loves her brother's best mate Cal (cool footballer) and has done for a long time; however he has never seen Angel as girlfriend material before, until she gets a makeover of course. However as he has a girlfriend he can't ask Angel out. ...
...can't really get any worse Angel gets saved by the one and only Cal, who along the way has lost a girlfriend and become a footballer for Chelsea football club and they life happily ever after. MY THOUGHTS The book is predictable (particularly if you have read Jordan's biography as it is basically her life in fiction) but somehow you feel drawn to the characters and want what's best for Angel even if she doesn't deserve it. If you like fashion ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

I have extremely strong but mixed opinions about this book, my mate got it as a freebie from a magazine, thank god she didnt buy it to be honest because i wouldnt have payed for than £2 for it! I borrowed it as a light read for the plane journey to portugal, at first i thought it was quite good, wasnt badly written as i thought it may have been, however, i very much doubt katie price or 'jordan' wrote it as i doubt she can even put get her arm around ...
...okay, quite good detail, typical teenagers. Then the book became all about Katie's own experiences and to be honest i wasn't shocked at the rest of the book, full of saucy and rather explicit sex scenes! However this book has also made me realize that glamour modelling is harder than it looks and how the world of fame and paparazzi can turn even the most innocent to start of with. I got seriously depressed at one stage reading this book, but it did ...

...know what happened next to Angel at every point in the book. Well written by Katie Price, very easy reading and a good "girly" story. Although Angel's life is far from mine I could relate to it, there is romance and sadness and an insight into modelling. Katie Price used her background to write this story based on the modelling and you can really relate to the characters in the book, there is a model, footballer, boy band member as the main characters, ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

...imagine what shes going through. Angel is a young girl, whom at the beginning of the story is seen as an "unattractive beauty" that doesn't make the best of herself. She then begins to beautify herself and suddenly becomes attractive to Cal (her secret crush). Chapter two start off with the morning after the night out. Any female can relate to this, as she is very discriptive regarding how Angel is feeling. This is a rather abrupt chapter, where ...
...the story,as this would reflect the adverage teenager. As the book progresses, the story becomes rather graphic as the sex scenes are rather raunchy, and taboo subjects such as 3somes and illegal drugs are used as one of the main themes. The only thing that lets this book down is the predictable ending (obviously Im not going to give this away), but it doesn't compare to the brilliance of the rest of the book. I would recommend this to anyone over ...

Review of Angel - Katie Price

This was Katie Price's first attempt at writing a fictional book. Angel is the story of a young aspiring model, as Katie herself once was. The story tells the highs and lows of angels career, and how it can be over in a second. There are many similarities to Katies real life actions in this book and it is very easy to spot and at times can seem a little cheesy. Overall a really good book and i found it hard to put down once i had picked it up. I look foward to Katies next fictional book!! ...

Once she agrees though she quickly realises that this could be the shortcut to the money she wants. Angel's rise to fame as a glamour model is rapid, and all of a sudden everybody wants a piece of her. Surely something's got to bring her down again, but will she survive? This ...
...that the author has no experience of writing beyond her own memoirs. The subject matter is so familiar when you think about Katie Price that you wonder whether some of it may actually be autobiographical. Then again they say write what you know, and this is certainly what Price knows. This does make me think that we will only truly see whether Price has promise as a novelist. This would be perfect as an easy read for the beach this summer. ...
