review 1: Outrageous, captivating, and unafraid to tell it like it is, Nene Leakes shares her wild journey from a scandalous past to the pinnacle of reality television stardom. Lauded by her fans for her refreshing honesty, infectiously genuine style, and clever sense of humor, Nene is an empowered, self-made woman who has not forgotten where she came from and knows exactly where she wants to go.In this straight-talking and provocative memoir Nene charts her journey from family black sheep to single mother to making good and realizing her dreams. With her charm and bold, self-possessed voice, Nene tackles her painful childhood; the abuse she suffered at the hands of a violent boyfriend; her struggle to support her firstborn son; and her path to true love, self-acceptance, and pride.... moreIn Never Make the Same Mistake Twice, Nene dishes on her cast mates; takes on the rumors about her past; and shares hard-earned and inspiring life lessons in her fierce, no-nonsense, and irreverent style.****Rate 4/5 Love this book. My guilty pleasure is the Real Housewives and my favorite character on the Atlanta show is Nene. In this book she talks and thinks just like she does on the show.
review 2: I enjoyed Nene Leakes on the first season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta - her behavior on the second season was less pleasant. I thought she became an actress rather than an authentic person that "tells it like it is". I still like her, she just turned up the volume to a border-line obnoxious.As for the book, it read extremely fast and was written with Nene's vernacular. I think the writing style could have been elevated to a higher level. I get she is "real", but if you are going to pay for a ghost author, they should help you write to a higher level.I did enjoy her dishing and sassing on the other "bitches" on the show and how stuff went down. I'm tragically addicted to the entire Housewives franchise, eating up everything. I even downloaded Kim's single (and the remix). However, I draw the line at the LuAnn's new single. Nene's book was a guilty pleasure, but like the show, I won't look forward to reruns. less
