Sliding Into Home (Kendra Wilkinson)

Sliding Into Home (Kendra Wilkinson)
I really wanted to like this book, and I must admit I did have trouble putting it down. That being said, I mostly had this trouble putting it down because it was hard to believe how ridiculous it was, and I would have guessed it was written by a 13 year old. The book starts out talking about her difficult adolescent life, being addicted to cocaine and turning to stripping to make cash. Focusing more on this part of the book would have been nice, as it was the only interesting part. She then decides to move to the Playboy Mansion, where her “nighttime parties” with Hef leave a disturbing picture in your mind. Aside from that, her description of her time at the mansion is incredibly boring, and there are few details about her life there. Overall, the most entertaining part of this book is the ridiculous phrases she uses. My favorite is when she attempts to convey her enthusiasm for landing a job at a dental office, so she no longer has to make pizzas: “Suck it Papa John’s”. I actually liked Kendra more before reading this.

Grade: D (too bad I couldn’t give a DD)
