About this listen
The reality behind reality TV! Hollywood's favorite mom-star tells it like it is.
Tori Spelling is the first to admit that the "reality" behind her popular television show, Tori & Dean, isn't always real. Not even Star magazine could invent the true chaos that happens behind the scenes. Luckily, Tori is famously honest and self-deprecatingly funny when it comes to her personal life - she's always "Spelling it like it is". Life is never boring at Tori's house, but since the release of her New York Times best-selling memoirs sTORI Telling, Mommywood, and Uncharted terriTORI, things have been especially unpredictable:
- Finding out she was pregnant with her third baby after nearly vomiting live on the Home Shopping Network
- Trying to hide her fourth pregnancy so soon after giving birth (as her stylist said, "Who would be that crazy?")
- Being rescued from a paparazzo by a mom lynch mob
- Stalking her celebrity neighbor
After years of revealing her everyday antics on-screen, Tori's life is still full of surprises. Slowing down long enough to enjoy them? Now that's another sTORI.

I laughed, I cried...
Where does Spelling It Like It Is rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Maybe I'm bias because I LOVE Tori Spelling but this book was a real testament to her life. She comes across as just a real down to earth gal! And boy does she work her butt off. The insights to "a day in the life of Tori" were very interesting to me - I'm always fascinated by how the other half lives :) Her stories just makes me want to tweet/text her and say "Wanna be best friends?!?" Love the fact that she narrates the book as well.
What other book might you compare Spelling It Like It Is to and why?
Tori's other books are very entertaining!
Which scene was your favorite?
Although it wasn't a happy story, the pregnancy with Finn was a favorite. Also the move to Malibu :)
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Tori - Puntastic!

Guilty Pleasure
Yes, I will admit that I am a closet Tori Spelling fan--she is so funny and insightful. I've listened to her other books and always loved the way she relates her stories even if they don't paint her in the best light. This book was especially interesting in light of her current woes.

Easy listening and a few laugh out loud parts
What did you love best about Spelling It Like It Is?
That Tori wrote and read it herself. Boy, you have to admit that she has one crazy life, but it's admirable that she shares it so openly with all of us.
What did you like best about this story?
Getting more background how how/why things have happened to her, her relationships, her professional life, etc
What does Tori Spelling bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Yes, we think we know all about her (and we know a lot since her life is so public), but this book puts it all into perspective
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When she talks about her parents. I also liked how she really, REALLY takes a good hard look at herself and decides how to change (what's important, etc)
Any additional comments?
Good book overall. It took a little while for me to really get into it, but I enjoyed her story and narration. I had no idea about all the medical issues she has encountered - yikes! There are a few really funny parts that literally cracked me up (as I listened on a flight), which made it fun too.

Thin on plot, not my favorite.
This is only the second of Tori’s books Ive listened to and i’m really glad I bought it during a sale. If not for her narration, I wouldn’t have finished it. It felt disjointed and repetitive as far as the “story” and plot points. i thought her very first book was much better and much more entertaining.

I was never a fan of Tori Spelling before I started listening to her audiobooks. Now I've listened to all of them and I just keep thinking about how crazy and funny and wacky and self-deprecating she is. I'm looking forward to the next book whenever it does come out.
