This was what I expected although the execution by the author (if she did actually write it as opposed to using a ghost writer) was poor. It was easy enough to read but I felt if was very cliched. It's a shame because I was expecting something to change during the course of the book. Sometimes books start slowly and the build up but this one stayed at the same level from start to finish.

Overall I didn't expect a great book and I wasn't disappointed.

Really not a stunning sequel to the previous. Considering its The Footballer's Wife you'd expect the focus to be on Charly, as indeed the blurb states, however the focus weirdly is on Tracey Crompton. And she definitely isn't a footballers wife.

Some how I don't think I'll be revisiting these books again in future, they're just getting a plain old no from me.

Such an awesome book

Must continue the trash trend! This book was written by this girl named Kerry Katona, who I don’t even know how to compare her to anything in the US. Sort of like Paris Hilton in the whole, famous for no reason? But she was in a girl group in the 90’s and left and hasn’t done anything since, but apparently, you put her in a magazine and it sells. She was married to some ugly guy from a boyband (I don’t know which one, one that was never popular in the US) but went solo and is now engaged to some Aussie singer, so he is here all the time, but is totally going bald and trying to cover it up with his Zac Efron haircut, which he is like way to old for. Anyway, long story short, this book was trashy as well, but oddly enough, not as much as the previous book! This book just had like no story. Just a trillion characters that all interacted with each other and that was hard to keep track of to start with and I can’t even think of the plot. The title only explains about one out of the million characters, which is kind of pointless.

Grade: C-

I thought it was quite good. It felt like a mix between Martina Cole (mild) and one of Jordans books. Trashy themed (well it is about a WAG), following the life of a footballers woman turns wife and the drama that follows. Not only is she a WAG but from a family who come from a rough background. Pretty good junk food for the brain, easy reading.

If you want a trashy read I think Katie Price's books are far better written than this. I got bored and skipped lots of pages, far too many story line threads that went nowhere.
