(Part 3) Top products from r/BravoRealHousewives

Her first book has an impressive 2.5 stars on Amazon.

Here are the highlights of some of my favorite reviews:

"What kind of publishing house would allow this nonsense?"

"I couldn't put this great, bathroom read down fast enough."

"I got this as a joke gift, and it got the laugh I was hoping for - FIVE STARS FOR THAT! I have no idea if the content is any good, who cares."

"Sadly, this book seems to have been written by a child."

"Please don't be stupid like I was and pay good money for this poorly written sophomoric rendition."

"Trash is as trash does."

Arthur Miller in a pretty well known confrontation before he was casting for a movie he was directing. He literally told her she's just pretty, on top of emotionally abusing her, and that she would never make it as an actress. There's a phenominal documentary on Marilyn Monroe on HBO from a book of her hand written letters, fully sourced.

I recommend it. It's as beautiful as it is heartbreaking. You also learn how many producers thought the same and made her sleep with them to get parts, which wasn't (or isnt) rare in Hollywood. You also get to learn at how desperately she wanted to be an actress and not a sex icon but the men surrounding her aside from Joe DiMaggio, never treated her even remotely serious and lead her on as many times as they could.

I also recommend the book "Marilyn Monroe: Her Life In Her Own Words..." by George Barris. Im on my phone and i dont know how to directly link it. http://www.amazon.com/Marilyn-Words-Monroes-Revealing-Photographs/dp/0806531231

Edit: A.M. told M.M. before casting began, not after.

Tl;dr: in a shocking twist, a pretty woman in Hollywood has run in with terrible men and has her dreams crushed because she's just pretty.

and she needs to get an education in elegance. It's learned, my friend. Oh yeah.

May I suggest this book to her?

Still not as bad Melissa Gorga reviews, they were very funny !

I read Pioneer Girl by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and that book was like two different books combined with all the annotations. It was very interesting though with all the behind the scenes info, particularly with her daughter and how much she had to do with the Little House books.

Oh, everyone should read all the 1-star reviews. They're delicious.

i really recommend her memior what remains, it gave me such a huge insight into carole and made me respect the fuck out of her.

OMG! She's being a bucket dipper. My DD was like this (well she still is once in a while). At her preschool, the teachers introduced this book.
I got it for use to read at home too, to reinforce it and it's helped us soo much!

Now when she starts to act up, I just ask her if she thinks doing/saying X,Y,Z is being "bucket filler or a bucket dipper"?

ETA: In general, it helps if you get them to think about what they've done/said instead of saying "don't do that or don't say that". When you throw it back on them and ask them to stop and think about what they're about to do or what they've done, it resonates with them and stays with them a lot longer. So in your niece's case of name calling, I'd ask her if she's ever been called a name before and how did that make her feel? Or, if she hasn't been called a name, maybe a friend has or a tv character has or someone in a story...
It's not foolproof and it won't stop them from misbehaving or acting up but we've found with our DD that even when she's done something wrong, she acknowledges that she should have been more thoughtful.

There’s a book called Dog Heaven that my mom gives everyone who has to say bye to their pup. It’s comforting too ❤️

I just finished reading The Roayl We, a fictional story which is not based on Will & Kate, but it does seem have a good bit of similarities. Anyway... one of their college friends is a really crappy fashion designer that is always trying to get Bex to wear her stuff which I'm now just going to pretend is Ashley.

Was it this book?

yup! It was actually this book, which talks a lot about how people get eating disorders and how you can recover from them: https://www.amazon.com/Intuitive-Eating-Revolutionary-Program-Works/dp/1250004047/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=intuitive+eating&qid=1569979124&s=gateway&sr=8-3

Yes.

He’s the OG Stud of the Sea! His book comes out tomorrow! 👨‍✈️

Freedom from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: A Personalized Recovery Program for Living with Uncertainty

Specifically what she referred me to is that in the book the author has a bunch of example "exposure scripts", it's like an exercise to ease obsessions through exposure therapy. If you wanna talk more about it PM me my dude

Wow, those were brutal.

Caroline Manzo's book reviews weren't much better. http://www.amazon.com/Let-Tell-You-Something-Businesswoman/dp/0062218883/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396491749&sr=1-1&keywords=caroline+manzo+let+me+tell+you+something

Haha no she wrote a book about her time in prison: https://www.amazon.com/Turning-Tables-Housewife-Inmate-Again/dp/1501135104

You means she didn't write about it in her last book?

That is a Jill Zarin level of fake reviews.

Poor Ramona, glad she's becoming closer to her niece.

Did they say what the accident was? Edit: per Radar he had a heart attack driving to the hospital and hit a tree :( Also, he wrote a book about being a drug dealing ski-bum - who knew?!?! https://www.amazon.com/Aspen-Snow-Blow-Sherrie-Lueder/dp/1495360504
