Take it for what it is....,

This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
Take it for what it is... It is meant to be cute, non- serious, and playful. It is simply meant to be light hearted, and fun. People who are so harsh about it obviously were looking for something far more than it is. Enjoy it! Every girl is a princess and should be reminded of that. =)

Just because...,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
Just because you don't like Paris Hilton as a person doesn't mean you should under-rate her diary. I am not saying I'm a huge fan... but what you all should be rating here is her diary... NOT HERSELF! So, get a grip and behave yourselves.
I would have to say that this diary is a great outlet for teens to express themselves and feel fantastic about themselves. My only problem was that instead of photos of Paris, it should use the space for pictures of the user's self. This all being said, I would reccomend it for a teen girl who loves to talk, shop, or just loves Paris Hilton. I would have to say a no to any guys... this wouldn't be the right gift.

Not a book,
By William (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
I saw this in a bookstore. It's just some small pictures of Paris and blank diary lines. The only people who will buy this are those who get tricked into thinking it's a real book.

Give Me A Break!!,
By princess_me81 (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
Why is this woman a star? Has our mental capacity seriously dropped this low in society that Paris Hilton not only got one book deal but two? And possibly more who knows? This is the message we're sending girls? Be a shallow air head like Paris? I have never met Paris. I don't need to. They say "Oh this is just the image she puts out to the public eye, she's not really like this all the time" Well then what the hell?? Shouldn't she be putting out her so called "real image" then? Is this what we think is ok? Be shallow and fake and stupid and people will love you. But don't show the real you, cause you'll go nowhere. This is stupid. Girls if you want to write in a Diary then buy a DIARY! Not one with Paris's face on it. A real diary. Write down your thoughts and feelings and not crap like "I love this store and that store and these shoes and that purse!" blah blah blah. She's an idiot and she needs to grow up.

Oh no! Not another 'Book'!,
By Jared (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
Ok, I am officially giving up all hope for the world, and society in general. Someone please tell me what is so fascinating about this attention seeker? She has no discernable talent and her behavior is usually quite embarrassing. But here we are, with another 'book' forced onto us by publishing companies who have lost all desire to print worthwhile material, instead are printing this trash, simply because morons will buy it and make the company, and Ms. Hilton, more money. So now we have become just as shallow as this rich imbecile, meaning one does not have to have any substance to them at all to be a 'celebrity'. Sigh!
Of course I did not buy this garbage, but I did flip through it at the bookstore, for the minute or so that I could bear it without gagging. I've always said, if I ever had a daughter, I would never let her play with Barbie, as it is a tool for 'Fluff Chick' training. And now Ms. Hilton is proof of it! The one thing I did see in this 'book' was her statement that she admires Barbie, because she doesn't really do anything, but always looks good doing it. Oh puhleeze! She admires a doll (not even a real person) and all for shallow reasons! And this is what we are parading in front of little girls to look up to?!? We are in big trouble! Whatever happened to all the women who were working for equal rights, equal pay, etc.? Weren't they always hollering about wanting to be treated as intelligent, capable people? And just when some strides are made in the right direction, this moron comes along? And she has legions of little girls admiring her?!? This is just plain sad. This garbage should be noted with negative stars and the media should be ashamed of themselves for forcing this idiot onto young people who are too immature and inexperienced to tell good from bad.

I personally am and I enjoy the book.The book makes you feel like you are talking with Paris.It is a great book for a teenage girl or a Paris Hilton fan.There are amazing pictures and wonderful quotes.And for the price...it is a great book I am glad I added to my book collection.

Oh God...,
By Me (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
I don't know which is worse: the fact that some little girl is writing about "hot and not-hot guys" and her recent shopping excursions in this thing... or the fact that on the bottom of the front cover, Paris Hilton is referred to as a "best-selling author." Pais Hilton, best-selling author. It's enough to make you vomit.

Good in Parts,
By Conan the Librarian (Incognito CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
Before the wood-chippers and pandering, predatory publishers moved in, 'Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me' was once a small forest somewhere, sunlit and breeze-licked by day, starlit and silent at night. It's becoming increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of optimism.
However, for the sake of balanced criticism, it is important to cite the book's eloquently redeeming features... the small blank spaces between the words.

Nope, haven't seen the book. Sounds pretty harmless for those who find it fun--the descriptions in the reviews tell of some OK life suggestions and values--there are probably some good and some bad. But I wanted to let some of the kids know: Paris didn't write this, and there's a good chance she's never seen it. An item like this is put together by a team--a professional marketer, a writer/editor of some sort, a publicity agent... maybe some additional consultants.
Ideally, Paris would see it before publication... that would be the most honest procedure. I'd bet she didn't, however. After publication, a copy might be sent to her... if she likes to keep a collection of "Paris products." Otherwise, one of her agents probably keeps the collection. There's a strong chance Paris has never seen this. Young Paris fans can still have fun with the diary. But if you don't like it, Paris is mostly not to blame. Who is? The publisher, the "book" industry that is producing more and more of these novelty products and fewer and fewer real books. The sellers, especially the big chains, Barnes & Noble and Borders. Does Amazon also encourage these items at the expense of real books? Not sure. Some of the posted reviews, pro and con, by young people are quite impressive. My conclusion is: enjoy the item, but remember to read deeper stuff as well. Keep writing! And support independent bookstores, libraries, and real writers as much as you can.

Very Cute,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Your Heiress Diary: Confess It All to Me (Hardcover)
This isn't her Diary it's more like a Journal with alot of Questions for you to fill out. it's really fun and I think more Celebs or they're companys should make them. I can see there being a Miley Cyrus one.
