  <default_description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;b&gt; Sexual icon Jenna Jameson, the most famous female adult entertainment star in history, steps further into the mainstream spotlight with this beautifully written, designed, and photographed tell&amp;ndash;all sexual autobiography.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; With the help of writer Neil Strauss, porn superstar turned mainstream sex goddess Jenna Jameson has created an unforgettable autobiography that is many things at once: a titillating sexual history, an insider's guide to the secret workings of the billion&amp;ndash;dollar adult&amp;ndash;film industry, and a gripping thriller that probes deep into Jenna's dark past. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; The tales begin in the underbelly of Las Vegas, a cesspool of strip clubs, tattoo parlours, murder and shoot&amp;ndash;outs that turned the gawky brace&amp;ndash;faced Jenna Masolli into the bombshell Jenna Jameson, one of the most recognised women in the world. Most of these stories Jenna has never told before, for fear of having to spend the rest of her life living in their shadow.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; Jameson rebounds in the adult&amp;ndash;film business, where she encounters sadistic directors, experienced lovers of both sexes, rock&amp;ndash;star lovers, bitter rival starlets, and, finally, glory when as a relative unknown she seduces the international media at the Cannes Film Festival and goes on to become the biggest star the porn world has ever seen. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; Along the way, Jenna provides insight into the closed world of the adult entertainment business.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Despite the title of this book, it is not a How-To guide in any sense (except for a few pages, but they're written in such a funny way, one cant help but laugh...and most likely agree with what she's saying!

    <body><![CDATA[The first third was filthy and fascinating. The middle covered more of her childhood and adolescence, and answered the question of how she got into stripping/porn/drugs/bad boyfriends. I think I was prepared to find that Jenna Jameson is kind of a bimbo, but she's actually very smart and business sa...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69030515">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[From the moment I heard about this book, I was interested. What could possess someone to become a porn star? What are the motivations? Of course this was only one woman's story, but my thoughts on porn stars didn't change much.<br/><br/>Jenna Jameson has lived a pretty disturbed and hard life, tha...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31229136">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is nearly 600 pages, and yet I read it in only a couple of days. Clearly I enjoyed it if I read it so quickly while having as busy of a life as I do. And yet at the same time, I would also offer up a few rather critical comments. The first is that it's the most self-indulgent autobiography...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25638625">more...</a>]]></body>
