Teresa Giudice
The star of The Real Housewives of New Jersey and three-time New York Times best-selling author offers a behind-the-scenes look at life in prison, her marriage, her rise to fame, the importance of her family, and the reality TV franchise that made her a household name in her explosive and ultimately uplifting first-ever memoir.
"People think they know everything about me...but they don't. Not even close."
Teresa Giudice, star of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, has seen it all, but nothing - not even Real Housewives scandals - could compare to the media firestorm that ensued after she was convicted on federal fraud charges.
The infamous, fun-loving Jersey mom of four was sentenced to 15 months in the same prison where Piper Kerman - the real-life inspiration behind Orange Is the New Black - did her time. Her tiny prison cubicle in Connecticut felt so far removed from the glamorous world portrayed on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. What was a skinny Italian to do? Keep a diary, of course...
In her very first tell-all memoir, Teresa comes clean on all things Giudice: growing up as an Italian American, meeting the love of her life and starting a family, dealing with chaos and catfights on national television, and eventually coming to terms with the reality of life in prison. Turning the Tables captures some of the most memorable moments of her prison stay, including the cringe-inducing fistfights she witnessed, the awkward conundrum of being trapped when a fellow inmate had a...guest...over, and the strength she found while confined between four concrete walls.
Even at her lowest of lows, Teresa was able to live la bella vita by staying positive and realizing her purpose. Friends, foes, and fans have speculated about Teresa's prison experience, but nothing will prepare you for the revelations she makes in this entertaining and heartwarming memoir.
"The world will see a new Teresa. A different Teresa. Well, actually, the Teresa I always was."

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
This book was like trying to look away from a gruesome accident. I had to keep listening even though it was painful. The story was ok. I actually like her voice but she does need to do some serious work and learn to read like an adult.What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
It was ok. I didn't think it was a great ending but then her story isn't finished yet, is it?How did the narrator detract from the book?
Toward the last third of the book it seemed like she was reading something that she had not read before. Or maybe she was tired but it seemed like the narration got slower and slower and her speech more and more slurred. It was like someone else wrote the story and she wasn't familiar with it. Yes, it did detract and distract from the book. Probably should have read the book with my eyes instead of my ears.Was Turning the Tables worth the listening time?
Probably not. Made prison sound more like a college dorm. Should have waited to buy this one when it goes on sale. I don't like to waste my money on books that are mediocre.What Can You Expect from Teresa.

This is certainly not Shakesphere, but, is was worth the credit; I enjoyed the book and it's much more believable than "down the rabbit hole" tell all. I hope and pray things work out for her and her family and I say good luck and God Bless!
