The perfect juicy summer read. Super fast. I know a lot of people have a bad perception of Tori Spelling, but she has been through a whole lot more than people realize -- and she doesn't throw a pity party about it. She owns up to her mistakes and tells her life story with refreshing, self-deprecating humor. She makes fun of herself. She seems a lot more real than some celebrities. I thoroughly enjoy this book.
-------------------------------------
I cannot tell a lie: I like Tori Spelling! She was my favorite on 90210! I watched Inn Love: Tori & Dean.
I can't wait for this tabloid tell all ;)
sTORI telling is Tori's chance to finally tell her side of the tabloid-worthy life she's led, and she talks about it all: her decadent childhood birthday parties, her nose job, her fairy-tale wedding to the wrong man, her so-called feud with her mother. Tori has already revealed her flair for brilliant, self-effacing satire on her VH1 show So NoTORIous and Oxygen's Tori & Dean: Inn Love, but her memoir goes deeper, into the real life behind the rumors: her complicated relationship with her parents; her struggles as an actress after 90210; her accident-prone love life; and, ultimately, her quest to define herself on her own terms....less
