When I'd see Sharon Osbourne on programs such as the Osbournes and the X-factor what I would see was first and foremost a self-confidant, independent woman. She seemed to me to have the right mix of compassion and attitude. When I saw the autobiography I wanted to buy it to see how she had become this way. We never know what is under the surface of famous people. Was she instilled with the confidence from a young age by a loving family or has she ... ...would it be like to be married to someone who has battled all his life with rumours, drugs and alcohol to then see your children begin to go the same way. When I saw this in the shops I couldn't resist the opportunity to find out.
I had known she had an autobiography but at that point it had been consigned to the long list of books in my head that I wanted to read and I hadn't really thought much more about it. What initially caught by eye about ...

Advantages: Funny, Informative and Witty Disadvantages: Vulger and full of bad language
...and determination.
In conclusion, the language is pretty colourful and some of her tricks shocked me. Her story itself is truley Extreme and definalty one to read.
I totally loved reading this particular book. I have always enjoyed biographies mainly because I am a nosey parker...everyone says so. ...

Advantages: A thoroughly enjoyable read. Disadvantages: None.
I wasn't a huge fan of Sharon Osbourne, I liked her, but didn't think enough so to read her autobiography. I was very wrong.
The book is well written, fluid, humourous and thoroughly readable. Sharon Osbourne shocks with tales of falings out and dalliances with not only her family, but with well know celebrities too.
There are several photos in the book too for readers to reflect on the Golden days of Ozzie! Sharon writes in a frank, honest and ... ...the book down so don't be suprised if you finish it all in one or two sittings.
The book is not all jokes and shocking tales..it also touches the heart with very honest revelations from Sharon about the heartbreak she has been through, right from before she even met Ozzy. This book talks about her terrible relationship with her father, the Black Sabbath days, her music managing career, her battle with cancer and her daughter aimee, who stays out ...

Advantages: An addictive read Disadvantages: I read it so quickly that I wanted more.....
I was given the book for Christmas (and so cannot comment on prices, although I see it is now heavily reduced in my local high street) and started to read as soon as the school term began and I had a few hours to myself. Sharon drew me in to her rollercoaster life and I finished the book in double quick time. My husband is reading it now and we both agree that we would not want to live the Osbourne life for all the tea in China.
We have been Ozzy ... ...man and his family until the MTV show, the Osbournes. But according to the book this is only the more glamorous part of their lives!!
Sharon had the sort of life that would have made me suicidal and has survived all that has been thrown at her to become a well loved personality.
Sharon's life story is written as a history from her childhood to the present day. The end of each chapter has a page or two describing what is happening at the time that ...
