The Vixen Diaries

This book just talks about what her life is like since Confessions... came out. There's no juicy gossip, it's hard to read her rambling, and it's not entertaining at all.

Confessions of a Video Vixen has all the dirt, but don't bother with this one.

I read the first book after the buzz died down and I was unsure of how I felt about the Steffans, but I was sure that her story was sad and that many people could identify with her story. Because her story was so full of details about her struggles to make ends meet with a young son, I looked pass her remedial writing abilities and her over the top sexual exploits. I saw her as a sad, victimized girl with no other skill who is forced to use her body and sexual prowess is make a living in the City of Angels. Now, after reading her second installment, The Vixen Diaries, I am not as sympathetic.

Steffans mentions so many times that she is a New York Times Bestselling author that it makes my sympathy for her go out the window. The humility is nonexistent in this book as she talks about her million dollar houses, fancy cars, and her Boy Toy. Despite her success and ability to become a better role model for her son, she still has the same exploits that she had in Confessions. Why? In Confessions, she was providing for a growing son without a GED or any bankable skills. Now she is a pretty well off authoress who is STILL sleeping around, leaving her son with Nannies, and only mentions her son to invoke some kind of sympathy from the reader. I now have no reservations about my distain for Steffans in her current state. She is trying to be Hollywood Elite because she wrote a book. Honey, your writing did not make you a New York Times Bestselling author; you snitching was the reason why your book is a New York Times Bestseller. Play your position!

I could not finish the book because after each 2-4 page chapter, I kept finding myself rolling my eyes at her self praising, selfish, needy, hateful, and immature self! Urgh.....

I won't waste anymore time on her writings and I hope that she moves past this and learns that the real New York Times Bestsellers are so mostly because of their ability to write a complete sentence not because they slept with Shaq, Diddy, Ja Rule, Ray J, Usher, Bill Maher, and who ever else. They are all the real Bestsellers; you just rode in on their jock straps, told your story, and now you are all indigent!?!

Play your position!

By the time I reached the middle of the book, I realized it was hopeless. Maybe I shouldn't have read it while also reading, "Infidel" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. I was so struck by what Ms. Ali has accomplished with her life, and all that she has been through, that I had very little sympathy and patience for Karrine Steffans' misused life. Her writing is so overwrought, I thought it had been written by a screenwriter of Joan Collins' movies! Ex: "Back at L'Ermitage, I listened to him tell me he loved me still." Her discription of her "meltdown" (read temper tantrum) at the Mercedes dealership was very telling. While she was having her meltdown, she admits to being aware of how out of control she was behaving, yet she didn't stop and make things right. She gladly accepted the new car and happily drove away a changed person because of her self-reflection during her hissy fit! I honestly don't see how anyone can gain anything positive by reading this book.

She just goes on and on about how rich and how much of a celebrity she is in this book. This book really has no point to it. Save your money.

How does she not have every disease in the world??? Good read though

Such a waste. This book was boring and awful. It seemed more made up than the last book. Confessions seemed real. This book had me spacing out and I could not focus. It just could not keep my attention like the first book. She talked waaaay too much about Bill Maher. It came off as if she was begging that man to come back to her. UGH! Just over and over and over. When she spoke of Bobby...... yeah. Now she said Papa is really Method Man. If that is true, she is wrong for that and he is too knowing his wife was fighting cancer during that time. It just came off as if she was bragging about her success with the last book and how money has changed her life. Not the fact that she has learned from her mistakes. I can say I will not be buy the other books or this new one she is coming out with.

hands down this book was trash..
i guess i expected more like part one..
this squeal was a wasteing of my lil ol money

I read a lot of negative reviews on this book but decided to give it a chance anyway. It started off kind of slow (It at first felt like less of a memoir and more of someone just reading off an entry from their day planner)and I had a little buyer's remorse. There are interesting tidbits sprinkled throughout the book but is mostly self affirmation. The end was surprising though. Overall, if you're looking for this book to be as filled with as much scandal as the first then you will be disappointed. If you just want to pretty much know what she's been up to with a few more secrets revealed then... this is the read for you.

I bought this book because it was on clearance at Border's and it was only $5, so I thought what the heck, well it's not even worth that!

Ok book
