Review (PDF) Drinking And Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders
She’s the brutally honest breath of fresh air on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, known for her dramatic divorce, her barely-there clothing, and her inability to keep her mouth shut. So why should she change now? Brandi Glanville tells all in this hilarious, no-holds-barred memoir. Fans have been waiting for Brandi’s scoop on one of the biggest divorces of the decade, since her husband of eight years abandoned her and their two sons to marry country singer LeAnn Rimes. Not only does Brandi spill the beans about her side of the split, the lovable housewife shares the incredible wild ride that took her from a life in the ghetto to Hollywood’s most elite circles. For the first time, Brandi talks about how she escaped a rough neighborhood on the outskirts of Sacramento and stumbled into a successful modeling career that swept her into a world of Paris Fashion Weeks, private jets, and uncircumcised penises. Before she knew it, Brandi was the perfect Hollywood trophy wife—at least until her marriage exploded. Today, the refreshingly filter-free housewife and unapologetic mom is the newest full-time cast member of Bravo’s juggernaut franchise, where she often elicits raised eyebrows and gossip from her costars for her refusal to be the scorned ex-wife, to be bullied, to change her sarcastic sense of humor, or—on most occasions—to wear a bra. Sassy, raunchy, and compulsively readable, Drinking and Tweeting perfectly captures Brandi’s open-book attitude, as she dishes about everything from her DUI, her cheating ex, her one-night stands, and the secret plastic surgery that made her “seventeen” again. You’re sure to enjoy every page of this funny, upbeat, honest tale. Clear your schedule for an afternoon and grab your favorite cocktail, a comfy seat . . . and maybe a Xanax. But that’s for later.

This book opens with a bang (wink, wink) and doesn't stop. If you are someone who reads the weekly celebrity gossip magazines, blogs, etc. this is a dream come true. Brandi Glanville does in this book what fans of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are use to, she opens up her unfiltered mouth and doesn't close it until its all out there, warts and all.(almost literally;) Brandi is rare, especially by celebrity standards. She doesn't just dish other's dirt, she is more than willing to disclose her own short-comings, mistakes, criminal mischief, sexual exploits and...well...pretty much anything else that comes to her pretty little mind. It is a hilarious read that had me laughing out loud. And while Brandi as much as admits herself that she doubts anyone reading is looking for real life advice, she does give some really good information in her reflections, if you are willing to accept it. I would very much recommend this book. But it is not for the uptight, as she rarely sensors herself and at times has you asking, "Where is this chick's publicist?" There are many amazing one-liner's that will, no doubt, go viral. I say more power to you Ms. Glanville!! Any book that has me reading through the night because I just can't put it down, is a best seller and money well spent. Bravo Brandi!
Hate her or love her, she speaks from the heart, takes responsibility for her actions and is honest and real with the readers
At first I thought she was a bit brassy and tacky but you come to see that is just the wall she has put up to protect herself. She has truly grown on me and is my favorite housewife. Yes sometimes she says things that makes you wanna shake her, but I honestly think she comes from a good place and at least with her you know you are getting the truth. She has survived and made the most of what would have broken many. This book was a quick read that had me laughing in the waiting room :) If you are a Brandi fan you will LOVE this !! I am looking forward to her next book !
This was a fantastic book. My only problem with it was that it ended too soon. Brandi is a fun, entertaining writer who is brutally honest and isn't afraid to mock herself. I would love to read another book from her and I hope that she keeps writing.
I really enjoyed this book, It is an honest portrayal of her experiences. The book is witty and I found myself glued to it and highly entertained the whole way through. She is a strong, independent woman, who is honest about her life. I found this book to be very refreshing, way to go Brandi!
Honesty and bravery. I'm in the middle of this book and have watched Brandi on Housewives. I like her very much, filter or no filter! So far I like what I've read. Also like that I was able to download easily and quickly. Life at times is like walking thru a garden of poison ivy, and it's nice to read about how one person learned to rely on calamine and self awareness.
I love Brandi on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Of course this book was a pre-order, and I waited for it to arrive, but I really wanted the hard copy for my library.The book is well made, and the cover sleeve is a nice quality with beautiful pictures.I would say this book if for you if you are any of the following; Brandi fan, single mom, getting out of a relationship, have been cheated on, currently dating, getting a divorce, or have been following the stories through the tabloids of Eddie's infidelity.This book is not for you if you are a die hard Leann Rimes or Eddie Cibrian fan.The main reason why Brandi is so loved by so many is because she is so open, and hides nothing. She is very relatable which makes her charming and easy to like.Her story is a great read, fast paced, and easy to follow. I especially enjoyed learning a little on how she was raised, as well as her parenting. Of course the juicy details of her split from Eddie were fun as well, there is just something totally endearing about Brandi Glanville that will leave you loving this book!Total worth the price, and time reading it. TWO THUMBS WAY UP!
Cannot put this book down. It is witty and charming but heart breaking at the same.Brandi speaks to the real person who is inside all of us, the one that doesn't come out enough.Read this book you will not regret it.
