Tori Spelling is a GREAT mother!!!!

Tori is being the best mother she knows how and if that means keepeing her mother out of the equation, then she should go for it. I understand where Tori is coming from. We all, on some level, want to love our mothers and (for the people whose mothers aren't in the picture) want them to be in our lives, but you have to look at the big picture. Does anyone critisize you on your parenting or on your relationships? The only difference between Tori and everyone else in the world is that her world, her life is more public than ours. We all have tiffs with someone around us.

Toris 2nd book

The first book was good, the 2nd is a repeat of 1st. Tori, one book was plenty. This bored me.

Big disappointment

I loved Stori Telling, but in comparison Mommywood is a big disappointment. The stories felt repetitive and poorly organized, and weren't as well written as in the previous book. The editors really dropped the ball on this one.

Fast Read

I really enjoyed the book, but I think her first one was a little more juicy. This was a fast read and you can tell she has matured and tried to tell things in a way not to hurt someone's feelings. I don't know if I would want to buy as I got it from the library and read it in one day.

Tori kills me

I picked up Tori's first book for a little light reading in between fictional novels. I read it in 2 days. It is so light, comical and real. Some of her stories had me in stitches and she the way she wrote made me feel like she was just one of my friends recapping some events in her life. This was a great read if you are looking to laugh. She seems like a great mom, wife and friend.

tori's tell all books for all to see, is great.

I love Tori's books, they are honest and sincere. She lets herself be human like the rest of us and that is great. In this book, she lets people know it is not an easy job juggling stardum and being a mommy at the same time but she is handling it like a real trooper. It is a shame that her mom will never have a relationship with her or her grandchildren. I can relate very well to that. She learned to let things that can't change go and so have i. Tori's book is wonderful and i will get any book she writes in the future.

Reflection of good values and just plain good people!

I have to say not having a family of my own (children + husband) this did not shy me away from Tori's new book, why? Because I too have some Mom issues, I too have my own confidence issues and irrational fears and anxieties. Tori is relate-able and reading the book is like a good long conversation with my best friend about all my concerns in life. It makes me want to sit down and write her a big long letter and say hey, you're not alone girl! I'm here, we're in the same boat. Tori is doing an amazing job, busting her ass and making her dreams come true and holding it together for her children and husband. Such a great team and circle of support she has around her. So inspiring! Thanks, Tori! I'm still reading...what's next? :)

Forgetfull Fluff

Mindless fluff. I found her autobiography somewhat interesting, but there was enough to talk about as she reflected on much of her past. I found that this book, although her last felt the same way, was disorganized. You never know where she is going to go next with the next chapter or even the next sentence. A lot of what she talks about seems pointless. It was like she just wanted to write another book. I often found myself thinking "Why would I care?" If you feel you must read it I have two words for you: Rent It! I regret wasting my money.

Entertaining

Once again Tori talks about her life in a funny and page turning way. Even though she is living in "Mommywood" She shows us that she really is just like the rest of us living in "Regularwood". (ok, you know what I mean).

If you liked her first book you'll love this one!

If You watch the Show.....

I read her first book, so I was interested in this one. This book made me laugh. I was not so frustrated as I was in the first book of hers. If you enjoy her show, then you would enjoy learning more about some of the other experiences they don't show!

Cute but..

Cute read but Tori is desperately insecure and there are moments where you want to tell her to just suck it up and deal. I'd get this book in the library instead of purchasing it.

Very cute

I think I'm qualified to write a truly unbiased review as I am a straight single male that has never seen either of her shows (but did read her previous book and her mom's.) While she doesn't really get the word "normal," Tori seems a very real person. She tries very hard with everything she does (as her mother did not) and I think that is a saving grace of hers. She still is rather spoiled, but she tried to fit in as well as she could in her new neighborhood, reality show and all. I do agree with one person she met on the street; the dressing her pug up in a 2-piece bathing suit is WAY over the top. Some readers have said this is not as good as the first book. I agree, but only a bit. No, there were no real scandals with her and her mom (except that the spoiled, rich, control-freak refused to have anything to do with Tori after the first book came out.) But it is nice to see she can share her heart on the page with little reservations. This is worth the read especially if you haven't seen the show. Oh, and she looks darling in her bee outfit.

Another Fantastic Read!

Tori Spelling is funny honest and can really right a story.Just like her first book there was a lot of funny moments and even though I'm not a parent myself I still enjoyed reading about her with her kids and her parenting advise.Her story is so interesting that its hard to put the book down.I'm looking forward to reading her third book.This was a great read and I recommend it.

Good Mommy book!

I love Tori Spelling. I think she funny, loving, careing and so sweet. I think her relationship with Dean reminds me of mine so it's like watching or reading about my husband and I. This book really opens your eyes as to how she is as a mother. And the hollywood part of things too. She talks about how she tries so hard to balance everything. If your a true fan then you'll love this book. Also if your just interested on how hollywood moms do it then read this book. This book really does come from her words. I just loved it. I have read stori telling and reading her newset book now!

A Good Read if You Are Fascinated with Tori

I think Tori is interesting. I respect her interior style and per party planning abilities. I enjoyed her book, because she is a celebrity that people can relate to. And she is honest about her struggles. I felt the book mentioned the Tori/Candy conflict way to many times, however. Either she should get into more specifics or drop it. But it was a quick read, and overall I really enjoyed the book.
