"I happen to be a fan of Sandra Lee even though my foodie friends despise her semi-homemade techniques. And I knew she had a tough life growing up, so I was eager to read this bio. Her history is amazing and she's truly an accomplished woman, but she was forced to write this memoir in about 6 weeks and it shows. It was hard to read this book without stopping to glare at all the typos."
"The book is a classic rags to riches story. It was very interesting to read and made me appreciate my family and husband even more, but it also made me feel like a slacker for not doing more with my life."
"Since I don't have cable and I either cook from scratch or go out for dinner, I did not know of Sandra Lee until meeting her here in her autobiography. Always encouraging to see someone thrive rather than just survive a dysfunctional childhood. Reads like an extended magazine article, but included lots of pictures too."
"You know what? She may not be a great writer or anything, but it is always interesting to get the back story into someone's life. It just goes to show you never know what someone may be going through or has endured in their life. Not a well written, blow-your-mind piece of literature or anything, and I guess I could have learned her story through watching it on chefography or something. But I read it in a day and now I know everything I ever wanted to know about Sandra Lee. And knowing is half the battle."
