Publisher Description

With the same down-to-earth wit that made her entertaining memoir Stori Telling a #1 New York Times bestseller, Tori Spelling tells the hilarious and humbling stories of her life as a mom in the limelight.

Tori Spelling might have grown up with everything a girl could wish for, but these days, she's just another suburban working mom … whose toddler regularly recognizes her in the pages of Us Weekly. Welcome to Mommywood, where the stars are two feet tall and your neighbors know who you are before you move in.

Like most parents, Tori wants her children to have the one thing she didn't have as a kid—a normal family. On their hit Oxygen reality show, Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, the starlet and her husband Dean McDermott regularly wrestle dirty diapers, host the neighborhood block party, and tackle temper tantrums on the red carpet. But when the cameras aren't rolling, Tori's still having awkward run-ins with a former 90210 costar at a Laser Tag birthday party, scooping rogue poo out of the kiddie pool on a resort vacation, and racing to win back her pre-baby body before the media starts calling her fat. For all her suburban fantasies, Tori Spelling is no June Cleaver.

From learning to be the kind of parent her own mother never was to revealing what it's like to raise a family while everyone is watching, Mommywood is an irresistible snapshot of celebrity parenthood that you won't get from the paparazzi.

"Friends, get over it, swallow it, I have a THING for Tori and Dean. At the Inn in Hollywood, on Oxygen when I'm in hotels and they happen to be playing 24 hours of T and D - with all her batshit craziness and fears and their homewrecking ways - I love em. Guiltiest pleasure ever."

    " About the same as sTORItelling. All about the life of a star. I love Tori and Dean and watch the show, so I knew several of the stories already. A fun read for a glimpse into the life of a celebrity. "

    " Was so looking forward to this because I loved the first book. I didn't like her before the first book and that one made me sympathetic to her. This book was awful and made me hate her. She was SO "plastic" in the one- totally shallow and annoying. I wouldn't read her next one because this one really left a bad taste. "

    " Again, an easy read. Don't have to think too much (if at all.) Anything that has stories about raising little kids interests me these days. "

    " Although I thought Tori's first book was a lot better, I did enjoy Mommywood. I'm not sure if I would have enjoyed it at much pre-child. I was surprised at how much I have in common with Tori, especially with her feelings about living up to be a great mom. She actually made me feel better about my worrying- I don't worry nearly as much as she does, overall this was an easy read and really funny. Tori does come off as pretentious some but owns it. "

    " i found Tori a bit whiny during some of this book (am i really supposed to feel sorry for her b/c she's a working mom trying to juggle her family and career?!?) but overall, it was a decent read. "

    " I am a big fan of her reality show, so I enjoyed this book. It is very light reading, but I'd recommend it if you are a fan of the show. It was bittersweet reading about her struggles to try to have a normal life after growing up in the public eye. "
