Bought for Rowena. Big Hardback

Lips may curl derisively at this one, but canny booksellers will realise that it has almost as much potential as partner David Beckham's highly successful ego trip. And Posh Spice, after all, gives the faintest impression (unlike hubby) that she might once have opened a book. But words are not the issue here: like the David Beckham book, this is a feast of beguiling images of the sylph-like Spice Girl. In text that gives an impression of great frankness (suggesting she might even have had something to do with the writing of the book), Posh conveys what it's like to be half of the most famous couple in Britain, and talks about the vulnerability that has clearly never left her. There's also a welcome humour and self-mockery that surfaces at times, but the core audience for the book will be going for the 75 new photographs along with the occasional revelation.

3.5 stars. Finished January 19 - 2011
I am not a big fan at all of Victoria Beckham but we, my daughter and I, we loved the Spice Girls when she was little so that part was interesting to read. I had forgotten what had happened, how and why they quit and she does tell a bit about that. What annoyed me most though was that she appears to never be happy. During The Spice Girls period she missed her family, while with David there were other problems. it is true though that she was always thought of as the Spice Girl that could not sing but that was mainly because all the other girls did solos (not only on there first hit,Victoria) so I still do not get why she never did the solo's. What i liked about this book were the many photo's. Normally she always pouts on pictures but on these she really looks gorgeous cause she is acting natural. I do like her a a bit more now that I've read this book. (I also have My Way by David Beckham but I cannot read this yet. aargh) ;)

This is my daughter's book.
