Summary: Such a dishin hot book
Comment: I loved this book. It was full of life and dished a lot about things that were close to her heart...she shared a part of her heart fans can't see just looking from a far. I could relate...after all we are ALL human and we all have these type of things come up in our lives just not so wordly known. Read the book and you'll see all you never could.

Summary: She's so normal....
Comment: This was a great book. I never knew the 'other' side of Tori. I never pictured her to be so down to earth and 'normal'. She is not into fame like she is perceived. I never really like her on 90210, but after watching her reality show and reading this book, I see her being the typical girl next door. I would recommend this book to all women.

Summary: A surprisingly delightful read...
Comment: I purchased this book for my Kindle on a whim in an airport. I was neither a Tori Spelling fan - nor a Tori Spelling hater - and although I used to watch 90210 years ago and caught a few episodes of Tori and Dean: Inn Love, I honestly can't say I would have ever thought about Tori Spelling again except that this book popped up on the Kindle list, and I was in a rush to get on the plane and buy a book to read during the flight.
And yet when I started reading this book, I quickly became intrigued by this delightfully refreshing story about the real life of someone we thought we "knew" from endless magazine articles and TMZ clips, but who is actually quite different. This book clearly shows that not everything is at it appears; that money alone cannot buy happiness; that celebrities struggle with many of the same issues we "regular" people do; and that life can be complicated whether you live in Beverly Hills or Beverly, Massachusetts.
The writing style is very conversational and easy to read, and Tori is humorous, self-reflective, honest (even when it doesn't paint her in a good light) and humble. She does not point fingers at others (like her mom) without also recognizing her own faults and mistakes. I honestly can't say I have ever read another autobiography that seemed so real and balanced.
I read the book very quickly and was so glad that I happened upon this little find. It is not a great work of literature, but it certainly was a pleasure to read on my trip, and I leave the book feeling like I have a better understanding of the story behind Tori, and a better attitude towards the "rich and famous," whose lives are probably not as perfect as they seem from the outside.

Tori Spelling Reads Her Fabulous #1 New York Times Bestseller She was television's most famous virgin -- and, as Aaron Spelling's daughter, arguably its most famous case of nepotism. Portraying Donna Martin of Beverly Hills 90210, Tori Spelling became one of the most recognizable young actresses of her generation, with a not-so-private personal life every bit as fascinating as her character's exploits. Yet years later the name Tori Spelling too often closed -- and sometimes slammed -- the same doors it had opened. sTORI telling is Tori's chance to finally tell her side of the tabloid-worthy life she's led, and she talks about it all: her decadent childhood birthday parties, her nose job, her fairy-tale wedding to the wrong man, her so-called feud with her mother. Tori has already revealed her flair for brilliant, self-effacing satire on her VH1 show So NoTORIous and Oxygen's Tori & Dean: Inn Love, but her memoir goes deeper, into the real life behind the rumors: her complicated relationship with her parents; her struggles as an actress after 90210; her accident-prone love life; and, ultimately, her quest to define herself on her own terms. From her over-the-top first wedding to finding new love to her much-publicized -- and misunderstood -- "disinheritance," sTORI telling is a juicy, eye-opening, enthralling look at what it really means to be Tori Spelling.
