About this listen

THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

“I like to think of Not All Diamonds and Rosé as the ultimate reunion. I know readers will be surprised, entertained, and even shocked at what’s in store." —Andy Cohen

Dave Quinn's Not All Diamonds and Rosé is the definitive oral history of the hit television franchise, from its unlikely start in the gated communities of Orange County to the pop culture behemoth it has become—spanning nine cities, hundreds of cast members, and millions of fans.

What is it really like to be a housewife? We all want to know, but only the women we love to watch and the people who make the show have the whole story. Well, listen in close, because they’re about to tell all.

Nearly all the wives, producers, and network executives, as well as Andy Cohen himself, are on the record, unfiltered and unvarnished about what it really takes to have a tagline. This is your VIP pass to the lives behind the glam squads, testimonials, and tabloid feuds.

Life’s not all diamonds and rosé, but the truth is so much better, isn’t it?

“This exhaustive oral history features dishy interviews with 185 cast and crew members behind the Bravo phenomenon. Fans will delight to read about how it all got started.”
—New York Post

Critic reviews

“[Not All Diamonds and Rosé] spills the tea (or the rosé, if you prefer) on the reality empire with extensive reporting from the series' casts, producers, executives, and more.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“As sweeping as it is scandalous.... Fans will drink this up as quickly as the Housewives would a glass of champagne.” (Publishers Weekly)

“This exhaustive oral history features dishy interviews with 185 cast and crew members behind the Bravo phenomenon. Fans will delight to read about how it all got started, which fired housewives are angriest with Andy Cohen - and a shocking, never-before-revealed incident that happened when the New Jersey cast went to Punta Cana. No wonder the book sold out after it was first released.” (New York Post)

This was a fun listen but the narration is so bad. The impressions are so awful!!! It would have been so much better if it was read without trying to be cute.

Fun book

Amy Phillips is spot on with her impersonations of the housewives, it’s hilarious. Overall, it was good listen.

Hilarious impersonations

The impersonations are incredible. That one person can do all these voices and create so many characters with her voice is astounding and a huge feat. I totally disagree with other reviews that it’s annoying or makes it hard to listen to. It’s an artistic triumph!

As a big housewives fan I was excited to listen to this book. Overall I did enjoy it and found it to be a good listen. I liked the way the book flowed and learned some new things. However, some of the impressions by Amy were way too much (I absolutely hated her impression of Sonja). Her impressions made it hard for me to listen at times and I had to stop for breaks. When she was using her normal voice I thought she did a great job.

Enjoyed!

Great Impressions!

If you’re a Housewives fan this is a fun and interesting book. It’s great to hear the behind the scenes for all your favorite episodes and feuds. But, the best part by far is Amy Phillips performance who does voices for many of the different housewives. She is brilliant. The impressions are spot on, and bring the book to life.

Amy Phillips is a Genius

As a huge fan of all the housewives shows, I loved this book. I even loved how the narrator imitated their voices.

Housewives fan

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I’m a huge bravo fan so I loved the story but Amy definitely could have kept those impersonations to herself. I personally think she sounded nothing like any of them and it was more so annoying but I’m so glad the story itself came out.

Loved the story, hated the narration.
