I love Valerie Bertinelli, and was always curious about her life, and her weight loss journey, which is why I read this book. Writing is just like she would talk if you saw her on a talk show, etc. A little quirky, but entertaining. I found her life as a rock star wife interesting, and I could relate with her weight issues. Other than that, the book was just okay for me. No "wow" to it.

Thhe story is a little far-fetched, so you decide if you believe it or not. However, the message is what really touched me, and I will never forget this story. Great read!

I tried so hard to like this book, and really get into the story. I had read other reviews about how great it was once you got through the first few chapters. I read this till about page 200, and it just could not hold my attention. The main character was interesting enough, but the story just dragged on, and could not draw me in.

Insight into her life growing up, and how money can't always buy happiness. If you are a Tori Spelling fan, you will love her even more after reading this book. I was surprised by how well it is written.

This book took a little getting used to in the beginning. The book is written in 2 person, and jumps back forth in time. Once I got used to the way the book was written, I enjoyed it very much. It is different than any book I have read before, and it is a beautiful love story. Towards the middle of the book, I couldn't put it down!
