I'm a fan of the Real World, but I feel somehow cheated with this book. I realized halfway through it that none of the handwriting was real. MTV had used clever and no doubt expensive fonts that just look like it. I don't know if if was just recreated based on voice interviews or if their real handwriting wasn't "edgy" enough for MTV, but it sucks. I feel like this is supposed to be a look into what they were thinking and feeling, but it just made the whole thing seem so contrived. All the scraps of paper and seemingly poorly written entries were completely fabricated to skew the readers image of these people even more than the show did. All in all, I thought some of their experiences were interesting and insightful, but the deliberate attempt of MTV to further manipulate the appearances of these people just made me sick.

I was very dissapointed in this book. I thought I was going to get all kinds of dirt that they never showed on the T.V. show but with the exception of a few small facts, if you watched the show religously, you will already know most of the contents in this book. Don't waste your money unless you missed a lot from the actual show

Please disregard the other review I wrote for this book if it's still posted obviously the review was intended for The Real Real World book. The first book that ever came out for RW, on the first four seasons. But this book the diaries is okay it goes up to the Maimi season. It's supposed to be all the dirt they didn't air in the season. What all the castmembers really thought of each other. Thats basically the whole book though. It is written in this really generic writing thats supposed to have been written by the castmembers. Overall it has some juicy tidbits & dirt on what they thought of each other & situations in the houses but can't compare to the Real Real World book or Ultimate Insiders Guide book which goes all the way up to the Boston season.

This book was awesome. There was a lot more that went on between the casts than I realized. After watching every single Real World Marathon MTV had ever aired I thought I'd know everything said in the book. I was suprised at how much I learned.

Mtv is such a lame TV station. Doesn't it mean MUSIC Television? I've never seen any music on there. All there is are these stupid reality shows. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK AND DON'T WATCH MTV!!!

I LOVE THE BOOK IT IS REALLY GOOD !!!!!! THE BEST CAST IS BY FAR WITH GENSSIS AND ELKA AND JASON AND KALHALLA AND EVERYONE ELSE.. IF I COULD RATE THIS BOOK BETTER THEN A 10 I WOULD RATE IT 100 AND OVER I THOUGHT THIS BOOK WAS BETTER THEN THE ROAD RULES ONE !!!! BUT I REALLY LIKE BOTH SHOW ALOT WHO EVER THIS GOES TO I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO MEET ANYONE OF THE CAST MEMBERS (GENISSI AND EKLA ARE RELLY COOL !!!!!!!)
