review 1: 3.5 stars. 2014 is turning into the year of the memoir for me. I am not sure how I found this book. I think it was listed on my kindle under a suggestion because I have recently read a bunch of memoirs. This one was $3.99 which I thought was a good deal, but it was pretty short. Overall, though, I raced through this book and really enjoyed it. I hope the author writes more books, I really enjoyed her insights and "voice".
review 2: This is a relatively short non-fiction book detailing incidents from Jennifer Tress' life so far. It seems to be self-published and I think it could have done with an editor, or more outside input. This is because although the incidents from her life are interesting, they are compiled at random and there does not seem to be an overar... moreching theme to the book. The first half is the better half as it deals with her childhood, her parents, her love for Jon Bon Jovi, the time she was assaulted, her job, and her relationship with her first husband, which, incidentally, led to the title of the book. But after that there is just more relationship stuff, which is okay, but she seems to have quite an interesting job and I would have liked to read more about how she became successful there, and also how she decided to end up writing this book. I think an editor would have encouraged her to expand on those aspects as well. Altogether this book is not badly written and is very funny in parts. She is a very funny person and I think she has potential as a writer. less
