Kim Kardashian Selfish Hardcover – May 5, 2015
Purchase options and add-ons
The selfie photography of Kim Kardashian West, featuring many never-before-seen personal images from one of the most recognizable and iconic celebrities in the world. From her early beginnings as a wardrobe stylist, Kim Kardashian West has catapulted herself into becoming one of the most recognizable celebrities in Hollywood. Hailed by many (including Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci) as the modern-day personification of Marilyn Monroe, Kim has become a true American icon. With her curvaceous style, successful reality TV show Keeping Up with the Kardashians, DASH clothing store, makeup and perfume lines, she has acquired a massive fan following in the multi-millions. Through social media (Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook), Kim connects with her fans on a daily basis, sharing details of her life with her selfie photography. Widely regarded as a trailblazer of the "selfie movement"—a modern-day self-portrait of the digital age—Kim has mastered the art of taking flattering and highly personal photos of oneself. For the first time in print, this book presents some of Kim’s favorite selfies in one volume—from her favorite throwback images to current ultra-sexy glam shots—and provides readers with a behind-the-scenes look into this larger-than-life star.

Review
"Kim Kardashian already broke the internet. Now she's poised to break the best-seller lists. . . . It's easy to mock - indeed, the title almost does it for you - but this seemingly throw-away collection may end up being just as much a part of pop-art history as when Andy Warhol painted soup cans." -Daily News
"Kim Kardashian is the queen of selfies, and she's planning to make sure everyone knows it in her upcoming book, Selfish." -MTV News
"Now there's a book cover if we've ever seen one! . . . this book is obviously made for her biggest fans. Not to mention it includes previously unseen selfies!" -USA Today
"Kim Kardashian can take a selfie anywhere, and we mean anywhere!" -E! News
"In her new coffee-table book, Selfish, the reality star documents nine years of her life in selfies - some seen by millions, others revealed for the first time." -Harper's Bazaar
"Now you can get between the covers with her— hardcovers, that is. With more than 400 pages of intimate snaps (including bikini selfies, lingerie selfies and, yes, several nude selfies), flipping through her new photo book Selfish, published by art-house giant Rizzoli, feels like scrolling through a fabulously rich and beautiful friend’s well-curated smartphone." -Playboy Magazine
"As they say, you have to love yourself first! After months of anticipation (and just a touch of eye-rolling), Kim Kardashian's selfie-filled coffee table book, aptly entitled Kim Kardashian's Selfish, [has] finally arrive[d]." -US Weekly
"Kim Kardashian has joined the ranks of Giacometti, da Vinci, Lichtenstein, O’Keeffe, and just about every other revered artist of any era: she, too, now has a Rizzoli-published book devoted to her work at the forefront of an artistic movement. Indeed, Rizolli notes that she’s 'widely regarded as a trailblazer of the ‘selfie movement.'” -Flavorwire.com
"Treat your coffee table to a 300-page collection of Kim's best selfies . . . " -People Magazine
"[Kim K's] the queen of the selfie. And her soon-to-be released hardcover book . . . should be all the evidence she'll need to maintain that throne." -CR Fashion Book
"Attention all Kim Kardashian fans - here's the E! star as you've never seen her before! . . . aptly dubbed Selfish . . . [the images] definitely don't disappoint." -E! Online
"As it stands, Kim Kardashian West holds the title for most Instagram followers (at 30 million) just behind the platform's own account (at 60 million). An average Kim K selfie garners upwards of 650,000 likes with her wedding photo receiving 2.5 million likes. With all that in mind, there's no question that Kim's controversial new book, Selfie, is going to fly off the shelves." –V Magazine
“From her favorite throwback images to current ultra-sexy glam shots, Selfish will provide readers with a behind-the-scenes look into Kardashian’s life.” –In Style Magazine

If you like Kim, you will enjoy this book - although its really a photo essay and not a "book." Its broken out by year and you get to see Kim evolve from a gorgeous young girl to a stunningly beautiful young woman. My only gripe, and the reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is that some of the pictures cover two pages and the book spine and binding cut the picture in half and contort it. Take page 162. Its from 2010 and what would have been a beautiful picture of Kim. Instead, all you get to see is her right eye - the rest of the picture is bent in on itself. Its a shame really.
If you are a Kim fan, get this book, you will enjoy it.
Now I am indebted to take the time to discuss the horrifyingly negative reviews of this book...God loves all of us, forgives every sin, now I understand human-beings do not, but you who are leaving such hateful and angry words need to remember you are disfiguring your own soul to speak such words, and actually worse yet, put them in writing,
Christ spoke in the Gospels of the people asking God, "When did we ever deny thee alms?" Christ-"As surely as you denied them to the least of mine, you denied them also to me."
Comprehend the moral meaning of this parable extends far beyond the literal interpretation, if you cannot see the connection I am making, you are in BIG trouble.
Please read this prayer before you comment further on my review or write a negative review or comment on other negative reviews and support such hatred, you are now accountable, and should you desire to still run toward the fire, I assure you, you will burn...
The Lantern
I pray You will help us to discern between
what is important and what is trivial,
To focus fiercely upon what is important
and disregard what is trivial;
I pray You will bring awareness to us of our physical
as well as our inner beauty, so we will then feel inspired to
preserve as well as enhance it by natural measures;
I pray that You will bring awareness to us of Your Plan,
how it unfolds according to your will
for the best for all,
so to know it’s not about a single one,
but also to trust completely in You;
I pray You will help us to develop the qualities
which will attract good people,
But until and after this time,
I pray You will keep us aware You are always
there for us so we never have to feel alone;
I pray You will grant us Patience;
I pray You will grant us Peace;
I pray You will help us to discern between
The Good and the bad,
To let in the Good
And let go of the bad;
I thank You
I love You
Amen.
Kim's use of layout (per example - the black pages framing the "x-rated" section), her refusal to give spoon-feed the reader information (dates and names are sometimes given but often there is no clarity as to which image the information pertains to, and lets not forget the many pages without any text), and her use of images to construct a timeline is absolutely stellar.
Kim took the medias exploitation of her body, her sexuality, and her private data, and threw it back in their faces - she refused to be eaten alive and instead is a prospering business woman and mother, fighting in a culture of objectification and hyper sexualization.
For a woman to publish a book of herself. For a woman to title it selfish.
for a woman to lay claim to her power and refuse to give it up.
Kim with this book reclaims her narrative. She stands as a role model for all women who in today's society are told to be pretty, but not too pretty, to have sex, but not too much sex, to be smart, but not too smart, to speak, but not to speak too much...
Absolutely a key part of my art and theory book collection.
If you just came here to knock Kim, you best sit your ass down and check yourself and the big ol' albatross of misogyny around your sad sorry neck.
We live in a society where to love yourself as a woman is considered selfish...
Thank you Kim for taking a beautiful jab at misogyny and poking fun at the ludicrous idea that self love should be shamed
Bravo. We should all learn so well the lessons given.
Kim is a trendsetter. Her video game was something new that few celebrities would ever touch. This book can go on that list, the first selfies book of it's kind. When one thinks of the selfie, Kim will likely be the first celeb to come to one's mind. If you love Kim's selfies, as I do, you'll love this book.
One last thing: to the haters, stop with your negative reviews. You might actually want to look at something BEFORE you post. You guys are so hateful and close-minded it's truly pathetic. No Kim fan cares what you think anyway.
~People telling Kim to get over herself need to get over themselves like you really just took time out of your life to bash someone for basically knowing they look great, showcasing it, and being able to make money off of it. If you could sell a book of your selfies you would, but you can't and you're mad. Chill. Get it, Kim.~

I'm about 70 pages in, and I have to say, that this isn't as big of an issue as I anticipated. Most of the pictures are on one side of the page or other. Very few overlap across two pages. So as far as I'm concerned, it's a non-issue, at least as far into the book as I am so far.
You get what you expected. It's a fun glimpse into pop culture at the moment, a great gag gift, a great gift if you're a fan of Kardashian (and let's make no mistake about it, people spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year to look at pictures in celebrity & entertainment magazines. This is no different), etc. For those who know what they want going in, it lives up.
The book also comes wrapped up and sealed, so it makes a nice little gift.

1. The book itself is WAY smaller than I anticpated. I was expecting a larger, coffee table type book with full-size color photos. Maybe that's my fault for assuming, but it's small.
2. The pictures that span 2 pages are impossible to see! Since the book is hard to keep open, you miss out on a huge chunk of the image. And most of those 2-page images are stunning, so I wanted to see more!
3. The book has a strange smell - not entirely burnt rubber, but definitely distinct.
Overall, I love the book! I just expected a little more from Kim, since she's a business mogul and I'm sure she had help in designing the features of the book.
This book makes a great gift for any fans but if you dislike Kim or anything else, why waste your money?
PS: I like how one reviewer said "not professional photo quality, all distorted." Photos are taken on an iPhone and Blackberry, don't think you'll have pro quality :)
Seeing her pictures over time was neat for me, but I especially enjoyed the narrative. As a big fan of Mrs. West's, it felt like a fun facts or a trivia book. It's a nice little homage to how she's grown over the years. I'm glad I bought it, and I hope people can respect that other people are interested in this book.
I like the book because it gave me exactly what it promised. Lots of pics of Kim.
