Review

Advance praise for Stirring the Pot
 
“Whether she’s talking about work or play, family or friendships, her sex life or the lack of it, Jenny McCarthy never fails to make me laugh out loud. Who knew she could dish out advice so well, too?”
—Andy Cohen, host of Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live

I love Jenny McCarthy! She is so down to earth, real, and super funny/entertaining. She is also a great writer. I can't wait to read another one of her books. I hope I get to meet her in person someday. Great read!

I really like Jenny McCarthy and her humor :) I wasn't really sure what this book was about when I ordered it, but wanted an easy read. Lots of little funny parts and scattered information about just life in general. Easy to read and laughed out loud several times. Love this girl.
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2014
This was a gift to someone in a recovery program. She quickly read through & loved the book. It became a very popular book with the counselors and others in the program. I started to read it before mailing it and didn't want to put it down. I thought it was an easy read and made me want to read the next page (my personal requirement for a "good" book). I say Jenny on a talk show promoting her book & I went directly to Amazon and ordered as I thought it would be a gift for my friend and it was.
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2014
Yes, Jenny McCarthy is definitely a survivor. However, this book can be summarized in one page. I was unimpressed by her "open door" policy and I'm not sure what the message regarding that was for the reader. I agree with another reviewer, this looked like it was just thrown together, unedited, and had a poor choice of words. Although she is beautiful and talented, this book is not representative of those strengths and instead implies that if you have enough "hutzpah" and confidence, anyone can become a celebrity.

This book was very good and made me laugh. There were parts that I did take serious. It was nice to see how real Jenny is in her life and that she is just like the rest of us. Glad I read this book

I suppose her advice is fairly sound....just don't see why it was necessary for her to drop the F-bomb a couple of times on nearly every page. It was annoying, and added nothing to the credibility of her points.

Funny, Smart, Sisterly... Just what you need to get you thru life and the day.

A dose of Jenny is what everyone needs in their life!

I love Jenny! I wanted to love the book, I tried.. And tried.. And tried... And then...gave up. Because of her sense of humor I gave it 2 stars. I couldn't finish it. I found it full of boring nonsense. Her other books were much better.
