Product Description

T he Real Housewives of Atlanta averaged 1.3 million viewers per episode in its first season. Nene Leakes, the show’s outrageous, dazzlingly captivating, tell-it-like-it-is star, has been lauded by her legions of fans for her refreshing honesty, her infectiously genuine style, and her clever sense of humor.

Here, in this straight-talking and provocative memoir Nene charts her journey from the family black sheep to single motherhood to making good and realizing her dream. Nene tackles her painful childhood, the abuse she suffered at the hands of a violent boyfriend, her struggle to support her firstborn son, and her path to true love, self-acceptance, and pride. The fur flies when she takes on the rumors that have dogged her and shares her no-holds-barred views of some of her castmates.

With her fierce, no-nonsense attitude and delicious irreverence, Nene will tell it like it is about both her past and her present. Readers won’t be able to put this book down!

    1.0 out of 5 stars Who IS this person? We want the old NeNe BACK!, October 14, 2009

    This review is from: Never Make the Same Mistake Twice: Lessons on Love and Life Learned the Hard Way (Hardcover)
    Okay, first of all, I am a faithful viewer of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta", and in the first season, NeNe was the most appealing and lovable of all the ladies. She was funny, seemingly down to earth, and she was the housewife everyone wanted to get to know and hang out with, simply because of her bubbly personality and her no-nonsense persona. She was just REAL and we loved her for that! We also sympathized with her as she learned that the man she had always acknowledged as her biological father was not her real dad at all.

    But as the second season dawned, the NeNe that we had come to love had evolved into another person - someone whose ego has inflated at least 10 times what it was last season to the point of being obnoxious, loud and just plain mean. This fact was totally evident as of late when she intigated a rowdy and childish argument with another cast member (Kandi Burruss) at a party over something that really wasn't all that important to her.

    This review is from: Never Make the Same Mistake Twice: Lessons on Love and Life Learned the Hard Way (Hardcover)
    If you want to read a book about someone who says how fabulous and amazing they are every other sentence, this is the book for you! In the beginning of her book she says something along the lines that she doesn't boast or brag. Are you kidding me? This is what she does throughout the entire book. I could write a thesis paper on all of the contradictions in her book. She constantly says how everyone loves her because she is real and speaks her mind. But it certainly is not a two way street because when other people are being "real" and speaking THEIR mind back to her, she is amazed at their audacity and how out of line they are . . . if she will even let them get in a word edgewise.

    Nene 1st Season = crazy fun
    Nene 2nd Season & Book = obnoxious, annoying, and world's largest ego (Can she enter the Guinness Book of World Records for that?)

    Nene, you've lost your magic.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Just so-so, October 23, 2009

    This review is from: Never Make the Same Mistake Twice: Lessons on Love and Life Learned the Hard Way (Hardcover)
    This isn't NeNe we knew and loved from the first season. This is just a 'as told by' book by someone who has let fame go to their head.
