Burnt Toast (Abridged): And Other Pholosophies of Life Audiobook

" I enjoyed this book. I was not sure getting into it, but I did enjoy it. It made me realize I deserve more than what I give myself. I am always so focused on my family and others, that I often give myself the "Burnt Toast". "

" Kind of boring-- she is corny.. and if I heard about "burnt toast" one more time I thought I was going to throw the book-- did have a few good stories and insight to the life of a "star". "

" Teri Hatcher wrote in her book about learning how to slow down in life and not let it pass you by. Her ups and downs in her relationships and in her career. She tries to think outside the box when teaching her daughter life's lessons. The beginning starts with taking care of yourself. Liking yourself enough to put healthy foods into your body and not overindulge. "

" I finished this book because I felt like I needed to be nice to the author, who seemed to be trying really, really hard. I acknowledge that that was a pretty silly reason. "

" This is a biography/philosophy of life book that is interesting. I just love Terri Hatcher. She has some great stories that she tells about her life. "

" Love Teri Hatcher's writing style! My plan is to re-read this book every 6 months, just so I can have a sense of a 'playbook' in life. "

" Light reading, but it took me a while to finish the book. I lost interest at many points. "

" A pleasant look at some common phsycological issues through the experiences of celebrity (self-esteem, choosing for yourself, accepting the leftovers -- eating the burnt toast). Nothing ground breaking. Just some good reminders that you are in charge of your own happiness. "

" just okay. but i guess i wasn't expecting too, too much. it was a light read, with a gentle message about valuing yourself. "

" This book was awesome!! It really makes you open your eyes and realize that you do need to put yourself first sometimes and not always "eat the burnt toast" "

" Not a very flowing, easy read. Some good ideas, but it is hard to find sympathy for her problems of paparazzi and never knowing if you'll get another acting job. "

" For an actress, it was an okay book on life's experiences. "

" Lots of great insight and life lessons. "

" Even movie stars have problems like the rest of us. It's just easier when you have money. "

" An essential empowering read for every mom and woman in general :) "

" I am enjoying the sarcasm and dry humor. Some philophosies of life that I needed to hear right now. "

" If you have ever given up something good and taken the worst for yourself you've eaten burnt toast. "

" Realted to so much of this book. I know, Terri Hatcher. Boobs. That was the first thing I thought of too. But it's a great book for those of us who somehow ended up thinking we should take less than we deserve. Glad I read it. "

" Waste of 3 hours. I found this very self indulgent. Not really sure what the point to the book is. I read it for book club. "

" This is a quick read. I read it because I'm a huge fan of Desperate Housewives and while now think that Teri Hatcher is a lot like her character Susan. It was a fun read and had some good points! "

" Kim, I know you raved about how funny this book was, but for me it was just alright...light, easy read and definitely some laugh out loud moments...thanks for recommending it! "

" Love the title! Really enjoyed reading her biography (also not a big reader of bio's generally) May have to pick it up for another read as it's been a while. "

" This was a funny and honest memoir. It was written in a conversation style, you felt like Teri Hatcher was talking to you. "

" Good BOOK for thinking past a bad break-up! "

" I liked the fact that Teri Hatcher appears to be the atypical celebrity-in fact, in many aspects, she is relatable. However, her "life lessons" were disposed sporadicly and were pretty obvious, to me, at least. "

" Look, I liked it, ok? "

" I enjoyed this book. I was not sure getting into it, but I did enjoy it. It made me realize I deserve more than what I give myself. I am always so focused on my family and others, that I often give myself the "Burnt Toast". "

" I am enjoying the sarcasm and dry humor. Some philophosies of life that I needed to hear right now. "

" Just Ok, She is a crack up though! "

" This was a gift I received for something to read while recovering from a medical procedure. Personally, Teri Hatcher's life story is not that moving or interesting (to me anyways) and she does not offer any 'expert' philosophies of life that are touching or ground-breaking. "

" A pleasant look at some common phsycological issues through the experiences of celebrity (self-esteem, choosing for yourself, accepting the leftovers -- eating the burnt toast). Nothing ground breaking. Just some good reminders that you are in charge of your own happiness. "

" Kind of boring-- she is corny.. and if I heard about "burnt toast" one more time I thought I was going to throw the book-- did have a few good stories and insight to the life of a "star". "
